Parameters
  • description (string) -- An optional description of the experiment.
  • experiment (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    The name of the experiment to update.

  • metricGoals (list) --

    An array of structures that defines the metrics used for the experiment, and whether a higher or lower value for each metric is the goal.

    • (dict) --

      Use this structure to tell Evidently whether higher or lower values are desired for a metric that is used in an experiment.

      • desiredChange (string) --
        INCREASE means that a variation with a higher number for this metric is performing better.

        DECREASE means that a variation with a lower number for this metric is performing better.

      • metricDefinition (dict) -- [REQUIRED]

        A structure that contains details about the metric.

        • entityIdKey (string) -- [REQUIRED]

          The entity, such as a user or session, that does an action that causes a metric value to be recorded. An example is userDetails.userID .

        • eventPattern (string) --

          The EventBridge event pattern that defines how the metric is recorded.

          For more information about EventBridge event patterns, see Amazon EventBridge event patterns.

        • name (string) -- [REQUIRED]

          A name for the metric.

        • unitLabel (string) --

          A label for the units that the metric is measuring.

        • valueKey (string) -- [REQUIRED]

          The value that is tracked to produce the metric.

  • onlineAbConfig (dict) --

    A structure that contains the configuration of which variation o use as the "control" version. The "control" version is used for comparison with other variations. This structure also specifies how much experiment traffic is allocated to each variation.

    • controlTreatmentName (string) --

      The name of the variation that is to be the default variation that the other variations are compared to.

    • treatmentWeights (dict) --

      A set of key-value pairs. The keys are variation names, and the values are the portion of experiment traffic to be assigned to that variation. Specify the traffic portion in thousandths of a percent, so 20,000 for a variation would allocate 20% of the experiment traffic to that variation.

      • (string) --
        • (integer) --
  • project (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    The name or ARN of the project that contains the experiment that you want to update.

  • randomizationSalt (string) -- When Evidently assigns a particular user session to an experiment, it must use a randomization ID to determine which variation the user session is served. This randomization ID is a combination of the entity ID and randomizationSalt . If you omit randomizationSalt , Evidently uses the experiment name as the randomizationSalt .
  • removeSegment (boolean) -- Removes a segment from being used in an experiment. You can't use this parameter if the experiment is currently running.
  • samplingRate (integer) --

    The portion of the available audience that you want to allocate to this experiment, in thousandths of a percent. The available audience is the total audience minus the audience that you have allocated to overrides or current launches of this feature.

    This is represented in thousandths of a percent. For example, specify 20,000 to allocate 20% of the available audience.

  • segment (string) -- Adds an audience segment to an experiment. When a segment is used in an experiment, only user sessions that match the segment pattern are used in the experiment. You can't use this parameter if the experiment is currently running.
  • treatments (list) --

    An array of structures that define the variations being tested in the experiment.

    • (dict) --

      A structure that defines one treatment in an experiment. A treatment is a variation of the feature that you are including in the experiment.

      • description (string) --

        A description for this treatment.

      • feature (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The feature that this experiment is testing.

      • name (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        A name for this treatment.

      • variation (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The name of the variation to use as this treatment in the experiment.
