Henkan lists your AB Tasty campaigns, reads their variations and set-up, and computes results itself. It can play or pause a campaign, and always asks you first.
Before you start#
| Field | Where to find it |
|---|---|
| Client ID and Client secret | AB Tasty › Settings › Public API: enter a description, select at least one role, then Generate. Only account administrators can do this. Copy both values right away: they are lost when you leave the page. |
| Account / workspace ID (optional) | The numeric account ID. Leave it empty to use the first account these credentials can access. |
For results, AB Tasty's Data Explorer must be enabled on your account (see Limits).

Limits and good to know#
Costs and who pays. Your Henkan plan covers the AI requests: each question counts towards your organisation's requests (see Usage and limits). Data Explorer queries count against your AB Tasty data quota. Any API costs on AB Tasty's side fall under your contract with AB Tasty.
Troubleshooting#
| Error or symptom | Fix |
|---|---|
| AB Tasty rejected the credentials | Generate new credentials under Settings › Public API, and copy the secret before leaving the page. |
| Results aren't available | Data Explorer isn't enabled, or its monthly quota is used up. Read the AB Tasty report instead. |
| The test has no start date yet | The campaign hasn't started. Give a start date, or wait until it runs. |
| The wrong account is used | Enter the account ID when you connect, or connect the other account separately. |
