Statistical significance notifications
To enable statistical significance email notifications, go to Profile > Notifications and select the projects for which you want to receive an email notification when a running experiment in that project reaches statistical significance.
When any of the experiment's metrics reach statistical significance, you receive an email providing enough context to help determine the urgency of any corresponding action. For example:
Optimizely Experimentation polls for statistical significance differently, depending on how long the experiment has been running:
- 1-14 days – Polls every 6 hours.
- 14-30 days – Polls every 24 hours.
- 30-60 days – Polls every 36 hours.
- 60-90 days – Polls every 48 hours.
- 90-365 days – Polls every 96 hours.
- 365+ days – Not monitored.
You receive a notification for the metric's statistical significance value (measured between the control and each variation) that exceeds the project's statistical significance setting. Optimizely sends additional notifications for each new control and variation comparison occurrence that reaches statistical significance.
If you reset the experiment results and then a metric-variation reaches statistical significant (again), this registers as a first-time occurrence, and Optimizely sends an email notification.
