Run an experiment

Set up cohorts

First, navigate to the experiment.

Use the cohort panel’s “Add cohort” button to create new cohorts.

Once a cohort is created, use the toolbar buttons to:

  • Directly add participants (and copy/share their experiment links)
  • Copy and share the “join cohort” link (which allows participants to dynamically join the cohort)
  • Lock/unlock the cohort (preventing/enabling participants from joining)
  • Edit cohort settings (including giving the cohort a custom name and description in the dashboard)

To delete a cohort, use the settings icon in the cohort toolbar. Note that deleting a cohort also deletes all its participants.

Manage participants

As participants join the experiment, they’ll appear in the experiment dashboard under the cohort list panel.

Click on a specific participant and (in the general dashboard settings tab on the left) toggle participant panels to view that participant’s status and/or act on their behalf.

Search for participants

Use the search tab (on the left) to search for a specific participant by any of their ID names (and then click on the search result to select them in the cohort list).

Send attention check

Use the “attention check” button to send a popup to a participant (asking them if they are still present in the experiment). If an attention check has been sent, an “attention check” status chip will appear next to the participant’s name in the cohort list panel. Once the participant resolves the popup, this status chip will disappear.

Boot participants

Use the “boot” button to manually remove participants from their cohort and experiment.

Transfer participants

After clicking on a specific participant, use the “Transfer” dropdown at the top of the right panel to transfer that participant to a different cohort.

The participant will visually be sorted under the new cohort, but they must explicitly click to “accept transfer” in order to become active in the new experiment.

Note: If a participant is currently in a “Transfer” experiment stage, a “Ready for transfer” status chip will appear in the left panel.
