Generalised Tags in Automation

I currently have tags “on waitlist - march 2016”, “on waitlist - april 2016”. People with these tags are in my “general list” I have an automation that is sent to the general list and I would like to exclude people that are currently on my waitlist.

Is it possible to say “does not have the tag On Waitlist - ***” so that it captures people with the word “waitlist” in the tag and is not dependant on the tag in it’s entirety.

I guess what I am asking is, is there a symbol that refers to a general search?

Hi there, Amy from ActiveCampaign’s Customer Experience Team. We’re just refreshing our forum page and I wanted to add some help here for anyone who comes across this page/question/post.

You can segment the start trigger to your automation to ensure that ‘does not have tag on waitlist - march 2016’ or ‘does not have tag on waitlist - april 2016’ see here: Amy 🔊 2024-04-24 at 11.13.41
