fix: include experiment key on local-eval exposure events#75
Merged
Conversation
Local evaluation exposure events emit `metadata.experimentKey` inside the metadata blob but never lift it onto a top-level event property. Custom reports keying off `[Experiment] Experiment Key` therefore see no value for customers using local evaluation. When `variant.metadata['experimentKey']` is present, set `event_properties['[Experiment] Experiment Key']`. Mirrors the equivalent fix in the Node SDK (amplitude/experiment-node-server#83).

Note
Low Risk
Low risk additive change to analytics event payloads: it only copies
metadata.experimentKeyinto a new top-level event property and updates unit coverage.Overview
Local-eval exposure events generated by
to_exposure_eventsnow liftvariant.metadata['experimentKey']into a top-level event property, setting[Experiment] Experiment Keywhen present (while still keeping the fullmetadatablob).Tests extend
ExposureServiceTestCase.test_to_exposure_eventswith awith_experiment_keyfixture, update the expected event count, and assert the new property is present only for that flag and absent otherwise.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 4bc87f3.
