I am conducting an A/B test to prove non-negative lift. Instead of using a welch's t-test to report on confidence, what is an alternative soluation and how can I calculate the sufficient sample size? Thanks

When we add in IPs to exclude from the reporting features under the admin section, does that apply to all past experiment reporting that have ran or is it just for reporting moving forward on new activities?

Employee
June 26, 2024

Hi @melissama7,

It should only apply to new reporting from that point forward for Target reporting. However, if you have Target reporting in Analytics or CJA you could apply a retroactive filter there to see results that exclude certain IPs on prior tests.

We are having issues with the new visual editor extension that Adobe Target it prompting us to download. When we use this new one, the visual editor never loads the preview of the page. Is there an issue with the extension? I am using Chrome.

Hi @melissama7,

I use FireFox most of the time so I'm still using the Adobe Target VEC helper extension. That said I haven't heard of known issues with the new extension on Chrome. I will message you directly to see I can replicate your issue.

Hi. Question of Adobe Experience Platform Debugger. We started migrating into WebSDK for some applications of our website.

We noticed that it is not user friendly of debugging of websdk pages. Do you have any plans to make it easy for us?

Hi. I have a question about 

How Adobe.com Uses AI-powered Recommendations to Personalize Every Interaction

https://business.adobe.com/summit/2024/sessions/how-adobecom-uses-aipowered-recommendations-for-pe-s814.html

From 37:15, they are talking about AEM component with rich features. Could you please share to us some detail information about it.

Hi @coconyc13615,

Were you wanting to know how that can be used within a Target activity? I might have to watch that video later and respond later today.

New Participant

Hi. We would like to know more of AEM configuration. How to do the configuration like.

  • Meta tag pipeline
  • AEM Article Component with Target Recommendations Toggle and specify Target Activity name

I was also wondering if it was common to see bid changes in the lift for conditions in an A/B Test over the lifetime of the test. I'm not aware of any circumstances outside of the test that would cause this shift. For example, we avoid using auto-allocate because in the past the test that was leading early on did not end up being the winner. My expectation was that the lift should be relatively stable, but that has not always been the case.

Employee

Hi @yeswin1,

I have found that it is not uncommon for lift to shift over the life of an activity, especially in the first week or two. The amount of shift is going to be variable of course and depends on volume of traffic, degree of changes in the test, and audience behaviors.

Hi all and thank you for this session

 

Using AT a client faced some use cases where they couldn’t test or run experiments in multiple languages. They had to create different tests for each language and currency. Could you advise on the following:


1.Being able to make recommendations mixing different currencies?
2.Being able to make recommendations in dollars and other currencies?
3.Being able to make recommendations mixing (Adobe Commerce) stores with the same language and same currency?

 

Thank you!

Hi @niocolasmeriel,

Is this for an AB test? I would suggestion using "multiple auidences" to handle different different languages and different currencies. You need a way to signal to Target that a user is on one language vs and other, but when you are passing that info you can create language based audiences and then create versions of the experiences of the test that still maintain the essence of what you are changing but properly reflect the different langauges/geos you want to include in the test. Here's the help doc with some additional info on it: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/target/using/activities/abtest/create/target-experience-to-multiple-audiences

If I want to run more than one test on the same page at a time that are reporting on the same metrics, what is the best way to make sure a user is only part of one test? Previous tools I have used the bucket approach – we’re user is assigned a number and depending on that number they are put into one of two tests. I can see in Target there is the priority slider (not sure how effective that is) and also the ‘not in other tests’ audience. Never used either of these so not 100% sure what they do. Also, in Target, there is the profile script approach (this seems similar to the bucket approach on other tools).

Employee

Hello @melbe1 ,

 

Very good question; it gets right to heart of what it takes to scale experimentation and use your testable traffic effectively.

 

The slider will be the easiest way to prioritize one test over another for the same location and audience.

The option to create a new audience with an exclude condition on in other tests helps to completely isolate on test from all others occurring on the site if there's any concern for their potential impact on this one.

Solved: Audience - Visitor Profile - Not in another test |... - Adobe Experience League Community - 222723
Profile scripts come in when more complex inclusion/exclusion rules need to be defined. Ryan Roberts here tackled this scenario in this thread:
