Use experiments on multiple sites

It is possible to have multiple sites associated with your Oracle CX Commerce account.

In this case, any experiments you create using a layout as the control are active on each site that uses that layout. If a shopper visits more than one of the sites associated with your Commerce account and accesses the layout associated with the experiment on each site, they are counted as a unique visitor on each site they visit.

For example, suppose you have two sites, www.example1.com and www.example2.com, and each of those sites use the same Home layout as the home page for the site. If a shopper visits both sites and the Home layout is displayed to the shopper on each site, the experiment counts that shopper as a unique visitor on both sites, and the tracking of their behavior on each site is considered separately by the experiment using the Home layout.

Similarly, if you create an experiment from the Design page using an experiment slot widget on a layout, the experiment is active on any site that uses the layout which hosts the experiment slot widget.

The results generated by an experiment are displayed as one result set regardless of whether the information has been gathered across multiple sites.

If you wish to run an experiment on one site which uses a layout that is associated with multiple sites you should clone the layout and assign the cloned layout to the site you wish to run the experiment on. For more information on cloning a layout, please refer to Design Your Store Layout.
