Hi!
How can I mark my dataset by flags of other intervention that could affect data on learning period?

Hi Elena,

You could add a dummy variable to your set of regressors marking the training-period intervention with 1's. However, this assumes a fixed parametric form for the effect of the intervention. Another option would be to run CausalImpact twice, however this would produce overconfident inferences.
