- Optimizely Feature Experimentation

After [connecting your Feature Experimentation project to your instance of Collaboration](docId\:CSvS9-uzVKin52T9nsjbg), you can link your experiment to a hypothesis in Collaboration. Linking an experiment lets you reference your real-time experiment data and orchestrate your whole experimentation program from one place.

This linked experiment information includes:

- Status (running, paused, and so on)
- Type of experiment (A/B test, multi-armed bandit optimization, and so on)
- Run dates
- Variations
- Audiences
- Traffic allocation
- Metrics
- A link to the Optimizely Experiment Results page

## Link experiment

Follow the steps to link an experiment to a hypothesis.

**Note**

For help, you can view a demo of [connecting Collaboration to Web Experimentation and linking an experiment](https://optimizely.navattic.com/t7bg0d5o). Make sure to select a Feature Experimentation project instead.
:::

1. From the **Plan** page, select the hypothesis that you want to link to an experiment.
