  1. Go to Stores > Configuration > Catalog > Rule-Based Product Relations and set Show Related Products = Rule-Based Only.

  2. Go to Customers > Segments and create a new segment: Apply To = Visitors and Registered Customers.

  3. Go to Marketing > Related Product Rules and create a new rule.

    Apply To = Related Products
    Customer Segments = All
    Products to Match = SKU = <select a SKU>
    Products to Display = SKU +is one of+ Constant Value (specify 1-3 products)
    
  4. Open the matching product on the storefront and verify that the Products to Display are shown.

  5. Modify the rule created in step three and set Customer Segments = Specific > Segment from step two.

  6. Open the matching product on the storefront.

Expected results:

Rule-Based Related Products are displayed on the storefront for visitors on the product because the customer segment is created with the following configuration:
