When does an AB Testing really start after it is created?

Hi,
I created an AB testing with a key and string value from Remote Settings.
In Remote Settings, a key, "AB_TEMP" has a string value, "NONE".
In A/B Testing, Control group set AB_TEMP's value to "GROUP_A", and Group B set it to "GROUP_B".
This AB testing is launched with Running status.
In my Unity editor, I checked the value of the key from Remote Settings, but the key was not changed yet to either "Group_A" or "Group_B".

This AB testing hasn't started yet? Does it take some time to set this up internally?
Some other AB testing tools start at 00:00 AM in UTC.

Thank you

 

I have not tested this myself. So you know, Remote Settings is being deprecated at the end of this year in favor of Remote Config. You might want to check here https://forum.unity.com/threads/ann...ltiple-weighted-variants-within-rules.819873/ . Also, Unity recently acquired deltaDNA and we will be moving in that direction over the next couple of years https://deltadna.com/resources/developers-guide-ab-testing/

 

Anyway, both Remote Settings and A/B Testing are available services now, right?
Even though all other keys and values are loaded from Unity Remote Settings, but a key-value that is used in A/B Testing is not loaded properly.

These are my settings for AB testing.
In Unity Remote Setting, AB_TEMP has an initial value, "NONE".

This is a value change for the key in A/B Testing.

In A/B Testing, AB_TEMP is changed to either "GROUP_A" or "Group_B".

This A/B Testing is running properly.

 

Nevermind.
On the editor, a key-value is not loaded from the A/B Testing because the editor is always the Debug configuration.

AB Testing will only use the Release configuration of Remote Settings. That means it won't affect the values sent to the Editor and Development builds (those platforms use the Development config.)
