View operational data for an experiment in Sitecore Personalize
After your experiment is live, you view how it is executing on the Operational screen. You can see successful and failed executions, along with the executions average duration and the number of events being raised against the primary goal. The operational metrics are updated every 15 seconds.
Metrics for the goal display on the dashboard after the user's session closes. The session close can occur when a user manually closes the session or when the platform automatically closes the session after a certain period of inactivity. This is configured differently by each organization, for each tenant.
Additionally, when the experiment is live, you can view how the variants are performing against each other within 24 hours in the Performance screen.
For web and interactive experiments, you can also view the A/B Test Analysis report for exploring test metrics such as average session duration, views, and searches.
