Remove contact from custom audience
Overview
Use this action in a segment triggered or recurring flow, or a Journey, to remove contacts from a TikTok for Business Custom Audience.
Considerations
- In a flow, contacts are removed from Custom Audiences when the flow launches based on the segment comparison.
- You must have an existing Custom Audience in TikTok to remove from and you must enter the exact name of that audience in the parameters.
- In a Journey, once the contact enters the channel action node they'll be removed from a custom audience based on the segment comparison. For example, if there is a two day delay before the channel action node, the custom audience is not updated for at least two days.
- It takes one hour minimum to see your contacts removed in TikTok.
