Apply a custom experiment

If you’re happy with the results of your experiment, you can apply your experiment to the original campaigns or convert your experiment into new campaigns. This article explains what happens to your original campaigns when you apply an experiment or convert to new campaigns, and describes how to apply or convert your experiment.

How it works

If you apply your experiment to your base campaigns, the changes you were testing in your experiment will be applied to your original campaigns. Custom experiments support up to 100 campaigns per experiment.

If you convert your experiment into new campaigns, your original campaigns will be paused and your experiment will show with your other campaigns as a regular campaigns. They'll have the same budget and dates as your original campaigns.

Whether you apply your experiment to the original campaigns or create new campaigns, performance data for both the original campaigns and experiment will be preserved.
