Avatar

Level 1

Having issue while editing A/B Target Activity, When adding changes to Experience-B all the modifications is applied to Experience-A and Vice Versa in Adobe Target activity.

If both the Experience has modification it is applying the changes from Exp-B to Exp-A and Vice Versa. Having issues when trying to Fix VAR where I have to delete all modifications from both the experience and Adding back again to fix VAR.

How to resolve the caching issue happening when editing A/B test activity?

@subha2I faced a similar issue, but I observed that the problem isn't due to caching—it's actually a loading error. When switching from Exp B to Exp A, the Modifications panel should reload to show the respective modifications, but instead, it continues to display Exp B’s modifications. You can report this as a bug to the Adobe support team; as a workaround, try saving and reloading the activity or switch between experiences until the correct modifications appear.

Hi @subha2 ,

 

This is a common and frustrating issue in Adobe Target’s Visual Experience Composer (VEC) — where modifications made in one experience (e.g., Experience B) mysteriously apply to Experience A and vice versa. It’s usually tied to DOM caching issues, improper selector handling, or session persistence bugs in the browser or Target itself.

 

Clear Browser Cache & Disable Extensions

Before editing:

  • Clear cache (esp. local storage/sessionStorage).
  • Use incognito mode or a clean browser profile.
  • Disable interfering browser extensions like ad blockers, tag debuggers, or React dev tools — these can conflict with VEC rendering.

Always Reload VEC After Editing One Experience

  • Edit Experience A → Save → Reload VEC → Edit Experience B
  • This avoids session merge issues across experiences.

Still exist then 

You can report a persistent bug to Adobe Support by including:

  • Activity ID
  • URL of test page
  • Steps to reproduce the experience modification conflict
  • Screenshots or screen recordings
