Anonymous: Hi team,

Could you please advise on how the experiment would work given these conditions: the same layer ID is placed on 2 different URLs.

For example, the same layer ID is on URL1 and URL2.

And we plan to run test1 on URL1 and test2 on URL2. Can we run 2 different unrelated experiments on each of these URLs? What possible issues might arise in this case?

Vineeth Madhusudanan (Statsig): What you described will work. If you give both experiments 50% each of the layer (assuming they’re running at the same time) it does mean that each experiment will only expose half the users that visit each URL. If they’re not running them at the same time, you could give them 100% of the layer when they do run.

Layers enable mutual exclusion (described in the docs). I could figure why you’re using layers here - what was your intent here?
