Audiences can be managed in Customer Journey Analytics using Components > Audiences.

Managing previously created audiences lets you:

  • Schedule or de-schedule automatic audience refresh/update. The maximum expiration on the schedule is 1 year.
  • Renew an audience refresh schedule when it is about to expire. Expiring audiences are treated similarly to expiring scheduled reports - the admin gets an email a month before the schedule expires.
  • View the refresh interval and the last time that an audience was updated
  • Gain insight into the amount of time it took to produce an audience from Customer Journey Analytics. And the amount of time it took to have the audience appear in Real-time Customer Platform for activation purposes.
  • See whether the audiences in Customer Journey Analytics are being actively used by Real-time Customer Platform. Or (ideally) any Experience Platform applications that consume the audiences created by Customer Journey Analytics.

If you do have Audience View access, you can view audiences. If you do have Audience Create access, you can edit and delete audiences. The Audiences list shows the audiences.
