Strategy constraints give you granular control over who gets to see a specific feature by adding preconditions to one of your activation strategies.

But what if you want to only target users with a company email? For that, you’ll need strategy constraints. Quickly schedule feature releases and feature availability windows. Target feature rollout to users based on variables like region or email address domain. Generate user demand with time-limited feature releases. There are a ton of ways to use strategy constraints, and this is only scratching the surface. Any strategy on any feature can have as many strategy constraints as you want. Note that when a strategy is evaluated, all strategy constraints must be met for the strategy to pass. You’ll find that, in most cases, strategy constraints replace the need for . This means that you no longer need to define custom strategies, then implement them across your SDKs. custom activation strategies How Do I Use Strategy Constraints?
