# Segments

The **Segments** section is a configuration of filter conditions to create data reports for clients to download or export to other databases. 

When a client enters a contract with Ingest Labs, the API calls from the client's website are redirected to the Ingest Labs servers.

When a user visits the client website, the user's activity is recorded in the form of events and is sent back to the Ingest Labs servers. These events could include the page load, view cart, abandon cart, add to Wishlist, and other such activities. These events are stored in the Ingest Labs database.

The client may want specific metrics, for example, the data of people who bought a certain category in a certain brand using the app. A combination of these conditions can be set in **Segments** to generate data in the required format.

To access **Segments**, go to the **Media Data Platform** and select **Segments.**

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ingestlabs.com/media-data-platform/segments.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
