| ------------------ | -------------------------------- |
| Metric key         | `intelligems.experiment_status`  |
| Source             | Intelligems                      |
| Status             | supporting                       |

## How it's calculated

```text theme={null}
value = 1 for each authenticated experiment lifecycle event.
```

### Built from

* `Intelligems webhook experience id`
* `action`

## Known caveats

* Lifecycle state is not a KPI.

## Where this appears

* Integration lifecycle processing; not displayed as a KPI

  <Accordion title="Filters and boundaries" icon="filter">
    * Organization, store, connection lineage, experiment, and result scope are server-derived.
    * Generic metric publication uses only the unfiltered scope; linked custom-event scopes remain in Experiment OS.
    * Current variation metrics exclude the control variation unless the field describes the experiment as a whole.

  <Accordion title="Timezone, currency, and freshness" icon="clock">
    **Timezone.** Result snapshots require a verified IANA Intelligems reporting timezone. Provider-local days are stored with their UTC bucket boundaries.

    **Currency.** Not applicable.

    **Freshness.** Webhook delivery plus hourly scheduled sync.
