Entities

Entities are the subjects (aka randomization unit) of your experiments. For example, if you are a food delivery app, and you want to run experiments on Restaurants, Customers, and Drivers, you would have a restaurant entity, a customer entity, and a driver entity. Eppo creates a user entity by default, but you can add additional entities or edit the name of user if necessary.

Assignment, Property, and Fact SQL's can be attached to entities -- for example, an assignment SQL attached to a user would pull the assignments of users into different experiment groups.
