Progressive rollout

A progressive rollout allows you to change the value of your flag over time.

Example

progressive-flag:
variations:
variationA: A
variationB: B
defaultRule:
progressiveRollout:
initial:
variation: variationA
date: 2024-01-01T05:00:00.100Z
end:
variation: variationB
date: 2024-01-05T05:00:00.100Z
  • Before the initial date, the flag will return variationA
  • Between the initial and end date, the flag will gradually shift to return variationB instead of variationA.
  • After the end date, the flag will return variationB.

Using the percentage field (advanced)

If you intend to partially rollout or keep both features.

    progressiveRollout:
initial:
variation: variationA
percentage: 20
date: 2024-01-01T05:00:00.100Z
end:
variation: variationB
percentage: 80
date: 2024-01-05T05:00:00.100Z
  • Before the initial date, the flag will return variationB 20% of the time and variationA 80% of the time.
  • Between the initial and end date, the flag will gradually shift to return variationB more instead of variationA.
  • After the end date, the flag will return variationB 80% of the time and variationA 20% of the time.
  • This may not be intuitive. It starts with variationA as the dominant response and gradually shifts towards variationB.
