How would you send pushes based on user search activity?

Hi Bonfire!

We're trying to implement a new use case for push notifications where we notify any user who has performed a search on our mobile app when there is a new item that matches their previous searches.

We have two main events passing through Braze related to this use case:

1) We emit a custom event when consumers search in our app - let's call the event "Clothing Searched". We pass properties on that event that specify the filters that a consumer included on their search, for example "Size" and "Gender".

2) We emit a custom event when suppliers add new items to our marketplace - let's call the event "New Item Added". We pass properties on that event that specify the attributes of that item that match up with our search filters.

Our goal is to send a push notification to the consumer when a supplier adds a new item that matches their previous search. Is there any way to set up a single Canvas (or a Campaign?) that would handle this logic? Ideally we don't have to make multiple segments or canvases as there are quite a few attributes that a search/item could have.
