    Hi @Omar-Alzayed When apps have millions of users, browsing all users can have poor performance. If you have a smaller number of users, it can be useful. There is a way to create a segment so you can browse all your users. Go to App > Design > Segmentation > Segments Create NEW SEGMENT [image: 1782506603330-656b32ad-94e5-4314-a79a-f7a8cf201536-image.png] There's a couple different ways you can return ALL users. The one I like is to use the criteria A/B Testing ID 0-99 which will return all your users. [image: 1782506670940-28d945d5-1fb5-4606-b8be-c220291a763e-image.png] [image: 1782506728971-9a146d95-9e93-4944-a695-68844bb4fd53-image.png] Looks something like this: [image: 1782506490876-e37eea64-557d-4eca-91d0-2dff0699479e-image.png] Segments are automatically run nightly at around 3am but you can press REFRESH SEGMENTS to run it immediately. Note that the refresh will take time to complete according to your user count, you may wish to do this during low player traffic. In the case of this particular segment, I believe the Refresh will need to run TWICE to capture all your users. (I think the AB code needs to be initialized in the first pass, and then it can be read in the second pass, capturing all of your users.) Please take care not to launch the second Refresh before the first one completes. (If you have 10,000+ players then wait about 30 minutes or so) [image: 1782506956790-c4785150-2e0a-489d-8a47-d330c7c09d80-image.png] Once you have players in the Segment, you can browse by Segments. Go to User > User Browser Choose BROWSE, then check the box to browse within a segment. Choose the segment. [image: 1782507362752-fd6b9af5-b4b1-47d1-bc05-d43180e8e621-image.png] Reminder, once you have millions of users, this can be very slow. But you can create more refined Segments to filter to just the interesting users, such as Has Bought Something, Is at Least Level 10, and so on. Segments allow compound conditions so you can really filter to exactly who you want. Segments can also be used to target Sales and Promotions to specific player groups. For example you could create a $0.99 one-time, loss leader promo that is available to only those players who have not bought anything in your game yet. It's a very powerful system. Could you let me know if this helped you? Thanks John

    hi. @Paul-Winterhalder yes, permissions to call specific scripts and access control for Services and Operations regarding the generally provided functions are required. For example, there may be management tools that call specific scripts and use certain functions (CloudData...), and there may be administrators who only manage items. If possible, each API Key should be a function with permissions tailored to the situation. Let me give you an example. A company utilizes a mix of office and remote work. While the internal network can be protected to some extent by IP ranges, it is difficult to identify specific IPs because multiple operators work from home. Therefore, it is currently somewhat difficult to handle this situation using only IPs.

    @JasonL At the time I reported this, that field was locked too, so it couldn't be edited — but I've now confirmed that it's editable.

    Thank you for your helpful response. Unfortunately, since this feature does not align with the specifications we are currently planning, we have decided not to use it for the time being. We will contact you again if we need it in the future. Thank you.

    Thank you for your response. We used the automated promotion without making any changes to it. However, we confirmed that it works correctly in the production app. It seems that the issue may have been temporary, or that there was something incorrect in our configuration at the time. If the issue occurs again, we will contact you again with more details. Thank you for your help.

    The SDK is just a plain C# source library you can drop into any .NET project (not Unity-only). You can find usage examples and the source in our GitHub repositories at https://github.com/getbraincloud.

    @gyutaelee I will investigate the Per Promotion Deployment option you requested. As I was working on this I thought there may be a workaround for you that you would like. This could work for your team with minimal effort and on your current version of brainCloud portal. My solution hides the promotion so that only users you flag as TESTERS will see it. This would let your PROD testers gain the benefit of the no-ads promotion without disrupting your monetization. Within Automatic Promotions, there is the option to Target members of any of these segments. [image: 1779474011850-cb1f4861-16f8-432a-bb22-4b71dc0b0ce1-image.png] Within Scheduled Promotions, there is the option to Offer this promo to: Only users in: [image: 1779472315918-2a5f3a28-91ba-4f2c-bb1c-5a2c04ead1e5-image.png] Advancing to App > Design > Segmentation > Segments we can create a segment that filters to players that are flagged as Testers. [image: 1779472502119-59f8d7bc-3640-450f-ab67-086af9b8acdd-image.png] Now, segments need to have at least one more criteria, so let's choose something like has logged in at least 1 time. [image: 1779472567232-d86e5f6d-ded8-4c7e-ab26-1c07f9813f0e-image.png] Save this Segment IMPORTANT! Add the segment to your Promotion This will limit the promo to only eligible users. Noone else sees it! [image: 1779474059997-7aca6582-cff3-4469-ae98-6339b341ba06-image.png] Next we will need to flag some users as Testers. For a DEV app, the easiest way to do this is to go to the User Browser, RECENTLY ACTIVE and pick players (your testers) with recent activity. [image: 1779473025782-ec366981-f641-4833-87f2-64798766555c-image.png] GO TO USER to bring up their user summary and check the IsTester checkbox. [image: 1779473098382-d1094afd-ca63-4ce6-8070-477c879fb1d4-image.png] Testers get a special icon [image: 1779473149842-e02b71bc-db5b-4127-a6a7-1528697aee6f-image.png] Next, we will return to Segments. Segments are automatically processed overnight, but you can Refresh Segments immediately with the REFRESH SEGMENTS button. Please note: refreshing segments processes every player so this process can take a while and preferably left to low-traffic times of day. [image: 1779472658705-e306d8e0-553d-475c-a780-43fbed29a271-image.png] After processing completes, we can check the cohort of testers by returning to the User Browser choosing BROWSE, and Browse Within A Segment. [image: 1779473489489-43a330f6-e572-4b0b-a8ca-c0d631e63240-image.png] These are my Testers, so everything worked. [image: 1779473539999-a8b56bbb-536c-447b-9e7d-a8d8236ff165-image.png] Since only testers are eligible for the promotion, you are free to deploy it to PROD without affecting your monetization. And the PROD Testers you select will be able to gain the workflow benefit of no ads. Could you let me know if this solution solves your problem? Let me know if you have any questions, Regards John -Design
