To enable content experiments for In-app channel, you need to make sure the dataset used in your In-app implementation datastream is also included in your reporting configuration.
In other words, when configuring experiment reporting, if you add a dataset that is not present in your web datastream, web data will not display in the content experiment reports.
Learn how to add datasets for content experiment reporting in this section.
If you are not using the following pre-defined field groups for your dataset schema: AEP Web SDK ExperienceEvent and Consumer Experience Event (as defined in this page), make sure to add the following field groups: Experience Event - Proposition Interactions, Application Details, Commerce Details, and Web Details. These are needed by the Journey Optimizer content experiment reporting as they are tracking which experiments and treatments each profile is participating in.
