Google Analytics Experiments - Bypassing A/B Test

Question

I'm running an A/B test on a landing page using Google Analytics' Experiments feature (Universal Analytics). Is it possible to bypass the experiment and always show the original version of the page, though a query string added to the URL or some other similar method?

I'm imagining it being something like site.com/landing-page/?experiment=disabled, but I haven't come across anything in the documentation.

Answer 1

If you append the utm_expid code generated to the experiment page you want to view, it will bypass the redirect.

For example: www.example.com/index.html?utm_expid=121130413-11.qQUH2leXTuCxQsqdgxk9Rw.1 would always return the first page in the experiment.
