# Creating a Segment

* To create a new User Segment, go to **User Segments** and click on **Create New Segment**.

* Give your Segment a meaningful name.
* Optionally, you can add a Label to your Segment. Labels can help you organize your Users Segments, especially if you expect to create a large number of them.
* Optionally, you can drag and drop the **Segment Block** from the sidebar on the left in the Segment Area. This allows you to create a [Sub-Segment](/data-and-engagement-platform/user-segmentation/combining-segments.md). Click on the Segment Block, and choose a Segment.
* Drag and Drop the **Condition Blocks** from the sidebar on the left. Click on each Condition Block and choose a Condition.
* Additionally, you can drop a Condition on top of another Condition, to create a **Group**.
  * A group set to **AND** requires a User to meet all Conditions in it, to be added to the Segment.
  * A group set to **OR** requires a User to meet atleast 1 Condition, to be added to the Segment.

* Click on **Save Changes**.

You can create Segments using User Attribute Conditions, and Event Conditions. In simple terms, we can say that User Attribute Condition creates Segments using *who a User is*, while the Event Condition creates Segments using *what a User does*.
