GENERAL

Did Statsig experience a spike in non-unique event counts due to bot activity on July 2nd?

Date of slack thread: 7/3/24

Anonymous: Hey team, did you have any issues with StatSig on July 2nd? We observed a huge spike in a non-unique event (count) for a test variation during a particular hour. For the remaining time, it remained flat. The same event unique per users didn’t have such a spike. Can you help us to find the stableID of the user/users who generated such number of events? Looks like a bot. The difference Control: 66 vs Test: 1461.

Anonymous: So do you suggest as the best way to make such analysis is to export data from the experiment in excel and find the bot-like behavior there?

Ryan Musser (Statsig): <@U057R37HM3K> do you have access to the metric explorer in Statsig? This would be a great tool to do this type of analysis

Anonymous: <@U037NPXQ1UN> yes, I do, but as far as I know it doesn’t let you view a session of specific stable or user IDs.

Ryan Musser (Statsig): In the chart type, you can select view samples. This will show you specific rows. You can also filter down to users that are only a part of that experiment as well in the filtering section using a group by, experiment or feature gate, then selecting your experiment. See screenshots attached.

At Notion, we're continuously learning what our users value and want every team to run experiments to learn more. It’s also critical to maintain speed as a habit. Statsig's experimentation platform enables both this speed and learning for us.

We evaluated Optimizely, LaunchDarkly, Split, and Eppo, but ultimately selected Statsig due to its comprehensive end-to-end integration. We wanted a complete solution rather than a partial one, including everything from the stats engine to data ingestion.
