# Configuring Default Segment

This guide gives you a step-by-step breakdown of how you can set a default segment so every time you land on the **Accounts, Developers**, or **Buyers** dashboard, you’ll instantly see the accounts/developers/buyers from that default segment.

### User Permissions

* **‘User’ Role** → Can set a default segment for themselves
* **‘Admin’ Role** → Can set a default segment for themselves and also other users.

### Setting your default segment

Users and Admins on [Reo.De](http://Reo.De)v can set default segments for themselves. And there are 2 ways to do this:

**Option 1: While creating a segment:** Here you can choose the ‘Set as default’ option to make this segment your default segment.

**Option 2: From the segments dashboard:**

1. Click on the 3-dotted menu
2. Choose the ‘set default’ option to mark this particular segment as your default segment.

Default segments display a **'Default tag'** for easy identification.

### Setting a default segment for others

Only users with ‘Admin’ role can configure default segments for other users. Here’s how:

1. **Create or select the segment** you want to set as default
2. Click on the 3-dotted menu and select **‘share’** segment

3. Next, choose the users you want to share the segment with.

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: You can only set a default segment for other users you’ve shared the segment with. You can also set a segment as the default segment for your entire team. To do this - Click on the **share with team** option and turn the set as default toggle on.
{% endhint %}

4. Turn on the ‘Set as Default’ toggle on for the selected users.

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: It may take upto 45-60 mins for the default segment to reflect on the users dashboard. Users are notified via email when a default segment has been set for them.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Few things to note:

* If a default segment is deleted, users will return to the system default.
* You can have only one default segment for each account, developer and buyer segment.
* If a user sets a default segment and an admin also sets another default segment for that user - the default segment set by the admin overrides the default set by the user.
  {% endhint %}
