Cree grupos experimentales

Después de crear un experimento, deberás crear varios grupos experimentales para que el experimento tenga más información sobre y pruebas.

Grupos experimentales

El objeto ExperimentArm representa una parte de la la comparación que estás realizando para el experimento. Todos los experimentos siempre deben tienen exactamente un grupo de control. Este grupo es una campaña existente que se forma la base con la que se compara el otro grupo.

Los otros grupos se llaman grupos de tratamiento y, en ellos, se realizan cambios la campaña antes de comenzar el experimento.

Nota: Actualmente, hay un límite de un grupo de tratamiento por experimento.

El ExperimentArm también contiene el parámetro de configuración traffic_split. Esto te permite especificar el porcentaje de tráfico que se dirige a cada grupo de la experimento. Cada grupo debe especificar una división del tráfico y la suma de esa división los valores en todos los grupos deben sumar 100.

Debido a esta restricción de división del tráfico, se deben crear todos los grupos experimentales en la misma solicitud.

Nota: No puedes usar la resolución parcial se produce un error cuando se crea el experimento brazos.

Algunos puntos clave sobre el ejemplo anterior:

• El name de cada grupo debe ser único dentro de Experiment.
• traffic_split debe sumar hasta 100 en todos los grupos.

• Exactamente un grupo debe tener control establecido en true. todos los demás grupos deben tener se estableció en false.

  Solo el grupo de control especifica un array campaigns, que contiene solo un campaña.

Grupos de tratamiento

Una vez que hayas creado todos los grupos experimentales, los de tratamiento (es decir, los grupos donde control se configura como false, propaga automáticamente su in_design_campaigns. Puedes recuperar el campo de la respuesta de la API estableciendo el tipo de contenido de la respuesta en MUTABLE_RESOURCE, como en el código ejemplo. También puedes recuperarlo a través de un Consulta GoogleAdsService:

SELECT experiment_arm.in_design_campaigns
FROM experiment_arm
WHERE experiment_arm.resource_name = "TREATMENT_ARM_RESOURCE_NAME"

Sugerencia: Puede ser útil seleccionar el campo experiment_arm.control para indicarle qué grupos son los de tratamiento. Como este es un campo booleano no opcional, La API no muestra los valores de false. Una respuesta vacía equivale a false.

Campañas en diseño

Puede tratar estas campañas en el diseño como campañas normales. Haz lo que quieras los cambios que deseas probar en el experimento de estas campañas; el grupo de control la campaña no se verá afectada. Una vez que programes el experimento, estos cambios se materializan en una campaña real que puede publicar anuncios.

Técnicamente, estas campañas en el diseño son borradores de campañas. Si deseas encuéntralos en GoogleAdsService, agrega include_drafts=true parámetro a la consulta.

Se debe realizar, al menos, un cambio en la campaña en diseño antes de que pueda programar el experimento.
