How Do I Choose Competitors with Custom Logic?

Last updated: November 9, 2026

Custom Logic picks employees for a Challenge or Bracket Competition based on several Group memberships at once. For example, you can include Account Executives in Boston and Atlanta without building a separate Group for them.

Required permissions:

  • The Competitions: All Access or Competitions: Create Challenges permission is required to choose Challenge competitors.

Add the Participant Hierarchy Filters

  1. On the Competitors step, select Employee from the Hierarchy Level drop-down menu.

  2. Select Custom Logic from the Competitor Selection drop-down menu.

  3. Select a Group Type from the Group Type drop-down menu in the first row, then select a Group from the Group drop-down menu.

  4. Click on Add Filter to add another row, and repeat for each Group you need.

  5. Enter your logic in the Filter Logic field using the row numbers, AND, OR, NOT, and parentheses.

  6. Click on (View) next to the count under Summary to check who's included.

Example Filter Logic

To include only Account Executives and Sr. Account Executives in Boston, set row 1 to Location = Boston, row 2 to Role = Account Executives, and row 3 to Role = Sr. Account Executives. Then enter 1 AND (2 OR 3) in the Filter Logic field.

To include everyone in Boston except Account Managers and Customer Success Managers, use the same three-row layout with those two Roles and enter 1 AND NOT (2 OR 3).
