Hi, need help with AB testing redirect issue!
Problem: my page fell out from google after some time the AB experiment goes.
I use such config: for A page 'index follow' and canonical, for B page 'no-index follow' and canonical.
Over some time my page stops indexing.
Does growthbook uses 301 and not 302 redirect? Or what other problem it can be?

for most URL redirects we use the window.location redirect, which is not a header level redirect

ok, but what can be the reason that my page is thrown out of google?

well, if you redirect the google bot, and then no-index that page, it might think you've moved that page

you should probably make sure to exclude search bots from the test
