Project definition
A project is a way of creating a subsection in your Convert account. Each project has its own snippet, set of experiments, and set of collaborators. Projects are designed to help you organize your experiments across multiple sites (or different sections of large sites). The hierarchy of experiment organization looks like this:
With projects, you can group your experiments in ways that make sense for your organization. For example, if you run experiments on multiple domains, you can assign a unique project for each domain. You can also invite other users to collaborate on a project without allowing them complete access to your account.
Things to know before creating a Project
Some things you need to know about how a project behaves:
- Each project has a unique JavaScript code, this code splits the databases of clients and ensures website visitor information is private and never reusable in another project.
- A project can contain multiple experiences and goals, but the number that can be Active at the same time may be limited by your Convert plan.
- Only experiences in Active status count toward the active-experience limit. You can still create and save additional experiences as Drafts without them counting toward that limit.
- If you try to activate an experience after reaching the active-experience limit for the project, Convert displays a quota message indicating that the maximum number of active experiments for that project has been reached.
- Active-goal limits also apply per project. Archived goals do not count toward the active-goal limit.
- If you reach the active-goal limit, you will need to archive an existing goal or otherwise reduce the number of active goals before adding another one.
- For the current active experience, active goal, project, and domain limits for each plan, see the Convert pricing page.
- Inside a Project, an experiment can include websites with different domains as long as the same JavaScript code is pasted in the header of each website inside the project.
- When a project is deleted all data will be purged from our servers within 7 days and is unrecoverable after that time.
- When a project is deleted the visitor cookies will be unable to reconnect to any new project you set up on the same domain.
- Each plan has a maximum number of projects you can create. For reference please check here.
