Synchronized data extension - sendable data extension using filters

I really like you step by step guides! I find them incredibly valuable and easy to interpret! I can't figure out how to get synchronized data into sendable data extensions using filters. I cant use queries so filters is my only option, Im not technical. Im wondering if you can make a recipe to show the steps - I think my mistake is the primary key that I am selecting. Also do you create a filtered data extension or a normal one? Thank you!

Availability of the Journey Builder Developer's Guide

Hi contributors,

I am always pleased to see this kind of initiatives around Salesforce Marketing Cloud so thank you !

I tried to look for the "Journey Builder Developer's Guide" book by Eliot Harper (one of the major contributors of this repo!) but I couldn't find it on sale anymore 😢

Is there a way to find a pdf or paper version of this book on sale ?

I am also certified Salesforce Marketing Cloud consultant and I can contribute to this repo if needed 😃

Thank you so much for your great work !

Marketing Cloud - Multiple business units add-on

So I recently noticed in the edition comparison chart that the Marketing Cloud Corporate Edition does not support multiple business units and that it is an add-on that needs to be purchased.

Has it always been like this? I could've sworn that earlier you could create multiple business units in your corporate edition without paying anything extra. Is this a recent change ?

I tried using wayback machine to look for old edition comparisons or pricing structure but came up with nothing.

Thought I'd post here to check if anyone else knew more about this add-on.

Creating Custom Activities Recipe?

Hi,
This repo has been a life safer, helping to understand the MC apis. I was wondering if you have any plans to add a Recipe for adding Custom activities to JB, seems thats one of the most common use for 3rd party developers.

Thanks again,
