Firebase - how to create A/B test experiment for web app (not native app)

Viewed 2845

I'd like to A/B test a feature on our web app, which uses Firebase. When setting up the A/B test, I noticed that it's requiring me to select an "app" (I also have a native app), but I'm trying to target users that are using my web app.

One workaround I can think of is:

  • create a remote config boolean variable
  • add a condition to the variable for "user within random percentile"
  • fetch that remote config value when the web app loads
  • show/don't show feature based on the variable value

The downside of the workaround is that it won't track the Improvement or Experiment results, such as the following: enter image description here enter image description here

Is there a way to run a firebase A/B test experiment for a web app? (not native app)
