Audience Targeting Settings

The Audience Targeting Settings section is the fourth of six sections on the on the Configure Rollup Engine Provider step.

Microsoft® SharePoint® Server Audience Targeting allows items targeted to a specific audience to be filtered when aggregating them with the Lightning Conductor Web Part. For example, if you have audience target enabled an Announcements list, instead of aggregating all announcements from that list, in the Lightning Conductor Web Part, you may only want to filter the items displayed depending on the user who is displaying the page. The user will need to be part of an audience and items in the list must be tag for that audience. This allows you to display only information in the Web Part that is relevant to the user.

Use the check boxes in the Audience Targeting Settings section, as follows:

1. Select Enable Audience Targeting.
   
   
2. If you want to also return items to a user when that item has not been targeted to an audience, select the Include Not Targeted Items.
   
   
   

*For this feature to work, you must be using SharePoint Server and Audience Targeting must be enabled for the lists that you are aggregating. Audience targeting is not available on SharePoint Foundation.
