About this method

Stop an A/B test

Marks the A/B test as stopped. At this point, the test is over and cannot be restarted. Additionally, your application is back to normal: index A will perform as usual, receiving 100% of all search requests.

Note that stopping is different from deleting: When you stop a test, all associated metadata and metrics are stored and remain accessible.

Examples

Response

This section shows the JSON response returned by the API. Each API client encapsulates this response inside objects specific to the programming language, so that the actual response might be different. You can view the response by using the getLogs method. Don’t rely on the order of attributes in the response, as JSON doesn’t guarantee the ordering of keys in objects.
