1. Navigate to the existing Explore, Target, or Recommend track you want to include in recommendations.
2. Beside the track name, select Copy Sitemap URL to Clipboard.
3. Navigate to Content Intelligence > Content Configurations and select Add Content Source. A modal opens.
4. Complete the modal.
   1. In Source Name, enter a name for the content source.
   2. In Source Type, select Sitemap URL.
   3. In Sitemap URL, paste the sitemap URL you copied earlier.
   4. Select Add Content Source.

Now that you’ve added the content track as a source, you’re ready to segment the track and add those segments to a new or existing content pool.
