Easily View Experiment Owners and Collaborators for Enterprise Teams with the Visible Owners Feature

IN THIS ARTICLE YOU WILL:

Overview

The Visible Owners feature is designed to enhance transparency in your experimentation workflow by allowing users to view and manage the changes made by the owners and collaborators of their experiences. This feature provides an easier way to track access levels, contributors, and the changes made by collaborators.

This functionality is especially beneficial for enterprise accounts, where multiple users work together on experiments, ensuring clear visibility of roles and accountability.

Key Features

View Visible Owners

  • The owner of an experience is the person who initially created it.
  • Owners are displayed in the Summary and Report sections of each experience.

  • For each collaborator, you can:
    • See their name and role (e.g., Admin, Editor).
    • Click View Changes to see their contribution to the experiment (changes they made).

Access to Change History

  • Clicking View Changes for a collaborator redirects you to a filtered Change History, displaying the changes made by that specific person.
  • This filtering acts as a shortcut to pinpoint the exact changes made by a collaborator, eliminating the need to scroll through an unfiltered change log.

Configurable Visibility

  • The feature is disabled by default but can be enabled in the Project Configuration Panel.

    • Filters can be reset to view the entire change log.
  • A visible indicator shows when the log is filtered by a specific collaborator.

How to Enable the Feature

  1. Go to your Project Configuration Panel.
  2. Find the Display Experience Owner and Contributors option under settings and enable it.

Once enabled, owner and collaborator details will appear in the Summary and Report sections for all experiments in the project.

Use Cases and Benefits

Collaboration Transparency

Enterprise teams often involve multiple stakeholders in experiments. This feature ensures clear visibility into who created and contributed to the experiment.

Simplified Change Tracking

By introducing a filtered Change History, users can quickly identify the changes made by specific collaborators, making debugging and review processes more efficient.

Role Management

Users can view collaborators' roles (e.g., Admin, Editor), providing clarity on permissions and responsibilities.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Who can view Visible Owners and Collaborators?

Both Owners and Admins can view the Visible Owners and Collaborators feature. Regular users can only view this if they are added as collaborators to the experiment.

What happens if no collaborators are added to an experiment?

If no collaborators are assigned to an experiment, the owner's name will still be displayed as the creator.

What happens if the account owner makes changes to an experiment?

The account owner will appear as a collaborator in the Change History, but their actions will not overwrite the original owner's name displayed for the experience.

Can I use this feature on all plans?

No, this feature is available only for enterprise and pro plans.
