The basic building bloc is \vert. Because it is extensible, you have various ways to make it grow.
The various forms of \[B/b]ig[g] grow it a defined amount, whereas the use as part of a \left...\right context grows it to fit the content.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\[
A\vert_x
\]
\[
\frac{A}{B}\bigr\vert_x
\frac{A}{B}\Bigr\vert_x
\frac{A}{B}\biggr\vert_x
\frac{A}{B}\Biggr\vert_x
\]
\[
\left.\frac{\displaystyle\frac{A}{B}}{\displaystyle1 + \frac{C}{D}}\right\vert_x
\]
\end{document}

Interesting—I've always used
\Big|_{x}. Should I prevert to substitute\vertfor|? – wchargin Sep 29 '17 at 21:29 -
@wchargin In general
|and\vertare completely equivalent. Indeed,\vertis defined as\delimiter "026A30Cand the\delcodeof|is26A30C, while its\mathcodeis026A. – egreg Sep 29 '17 at 22:37

Just for training
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\begin{document}
\[
+\Delta\mu_{i}\left.\frac{\partial E_{S\sim\mathcal{N}(\mu,\sigma^{2}_{S})}[f(S)]}{\partial \mu}\right\vert_{\mu=\mu_{S}}
\]
\end{document}

\vertand it is extensible, as in\left. \frac{...}{...}\right\vert_{...}– Steven B. Segletes Sep 29 '17 at 16:43
