Event Tester - The Event tester allows you to troubleshoot your Sources, their configuration, and their downstream destinations.Workspace Health - if there are any problems with sources or destinations in your workspace, they’ll show up here.Use these Segment features to keep tabs on your Workspace: If you’re setting up a Warehouse or other storage destination, more steps might be required see the Warehouses documentation for more details. In most cases, you’ll need an existing API key or token so that Segment can send the data to the correct account. You can set up a Destination from within the Segment App by navigating to the Destination Catalog and selecting the tool you want to set up.

However, many Workspace admins are also involved in the Segment implementation process as there are usually some tasks that must be performed in the Workspace to complete an implementation. You don’t have to be a developer to be a Workspace administrator for an organization, and this guide only covers tasks specifically related to managing a Workspace in the Segment App.
When you first log in to your Segment account, you can create a new workspace, or choose to log into an existing workspace if your account is part of an existing organization. Workspaces let you collaborate with team members, add permissions, and share sources across your whole team using a shared billing account. Workspaces help companies manage access for multiple users and data sources. What’s a Workspace?Ī workspace is a group of sources that can be administered and billed together. You can use this collated information to analyze data, build user audiences, and personalize your users’ experiences. Segment also gathers information about your users from external systems, like help desk software or CRMs. These messages contain event and user data that you can send to other tools or collect in warehouses for further analysis. Segment is a system for sending messages from your websites, mobile apps, and servers. If you’ve already read an Introduction to Segment, you can skip ahead.
