Data and Analysis Field Missing

I recently added a new embedded data field to a survey in use. I checked my dataset to make sure I have this included. I added a column in my data and analysis tab for the “wellrive branch” as shown here but it does not seem to be pulling this into the results. How can I fix this?

Qualtrics and Canvas?

Has anyone connected Qualtrics and Canvas successfully? If so - how? What are you doing with it? Was your solution easy to set up or did it require a lot of support from IT?We are looking in to connecting Qualtrics and Canvas to be able to control access and pass name/email between the two applications. It's a pretty simple use case, overall, but we don't know how to connect them.Searching this forum, it seems all existing discussions are years old, homebrew code, or posted by the folks that created the branded Drieam integration (which possibly is fantastic but I can't find any discussion one way or another).Any information anyone can share would be really helpful. Thank you!

Randomization without Replacement Troubleshooting

Hi there, I am having a good amount of trouble trying to set up randomization without replacement on a survey. I have six conditions, and I need every participant to be in two, but to not go through the first one twice. I know this could be completed under one randomizer, but I need every participant to answer the same question block after completing the first condition, so they have to come out of the randomizer to complete that.I know that people have asked questions related to this in the past, and I have read those question threads and tried to implement the solutions, and although it looks like it is set up correctly, I am running into problems. Currently, it seems as though it is working, in that my test run-throughs have not been giving me the same condition twice. However, the embedded data columns are printing out empty in the exported data, and the flow IDs (which I require) are all messed up, leading me to believe something must be wrong. I need access to either the flow IDs

A calendar question that allows multiple date selections up to X number of dates?

Is there any question to import that is a calendar that allows date selection for up to a certain number of days?I'd need people to be able to select up to but no more than 6 questions.I checked the import question from library option and then I searched for Calendar but those options didn't look like a calendar (see screenshot)This is for an EE project if that matters. Thanks!

Real-time monitoring of completion status

HiI have 10 interviewers conducting interviews with participants. Participants are asked to complete a survey on an iPad. Once the survey is completed, they receive a token of appreciation.However, there are occasions where the survey is incomplete due to various reasons, but participants may still claim that they have finished it. To avoid this, interviewers prefer to verify the completion status before handing out the token.While the "Survey Completed" message at the end helps, there's no way to confirm completion if the participant closes the browser tab. Additionally, the online shared report has limitations because it does not support filtering by Respondent ID, which makes it difficult to check individual completion statuses efficiently.I wish to seek some possible solutions from the community please as the interviewers do not have Qualtrics accounts but need to check the survey completion status in real time. Thank youBY

Response export automation, batched at end of the day

I want to send a file at the end of every day that contains all the completed survey responses. The issue is my IT department won’t allow for sftp so I need some out of the box solution. I know I can send individual emails in a workflow with the survey response, but I don’t want people to be getting emails all day long. Is there a way to “batch” send the emails (either send a bunch of individual emails at once, OR preferably have it contain all the responses from that day). I’ve also been thinking about making a data table on a dashboard or report and exporting it that way. Open to any ideas!

Embedded Data Not Pulling Into Display Logic

Hello, I added a field to my XM directory contact list called WellRive Branch. I then went into my data set and added this as a field and added it as embedded data to my survey. I am trying to add display logic based on the WellRive Branch but when I get to the value there is nothing there. What am I doing wrong?

Seemingly random linked survey error

I have two surveys, one for patients and one for doctors. The doctors fill out their survey after the patients and they are linked using a randomly generated ID in the patient survey. Once a patient completes the survey, the doctor is automatically emailed a link to their survey that contains the relevant login ID.Most of the time, the link works and automatically goes to the correct linked survey. Occasionally, there will be a “Unable to log in with the information provided” error. I can’t seem to identify when the error occurs or what triggers it (it’s not duplicate IDs). Screenshots of the setup:Patient survey:Survey flow  Post survey trigger:  Doctor survey:  Email link sent to the doctors (part of the patient survey workflow):https://XXXX.XXX.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_surveycode?LoginID=${e://Field/LoginID} Thanks!

Currency display in text input with forced response and/or validation

I am trying to make a survey more user-friendly by having numbers users input show up as currency.Therefore, instead of 100000, it should appear U$ 100,000.Most of the solutions I have found or obtained can make the number change. However, they seem to struggle with Qualtrics internal validation/requirement mechanisms. JavaScript solutions that mask the number will end up having Qualtrics not recognize that the response has been entered. Likewise, number validations will not work even with masking.Does anyone have a solution that:Converts a raw typed number into currency; Lets Qualtrics recognize a response has been entered; Allows for validation (or at least only lets numbers be inputted) Starts from “,00”?

Mouse over/tool tip on question texts

I have found several threads on mouse overs, but most of them are +5 years old, so I’m wondering if the provided solutions are still uptodate or if anything has changed in the meantime. What I want to do is:I have question text. when hovering over certain phrases of the question text, I want a tool tip to appear. The solution needs to work on desktop as well as mobile devices. Ideally, I’m looking for a solution that’s as easy/low-code as possible.Currently, I’m using the following approach described here: https://servicehub.ucdavis.edu/servicehub?id=ucd_kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0006562&spa=1&sys_id=c52ef409db10a4d098c6ac1b139619e7 This works ok-ish, but I have to make myself familiar with CSS in order to tweak the visual appearance, so maybe there’s an easier solution? Thanks!

Defining a variable for desktop vs. mobile participation

Hi! I want to track if participants took part in a survey with their mobile device / a tablet / a desktop computer. I know I can add a hidden question with browser meta info. However, this tracks the user agent and other stuff, but isn’t aggregated in the way described above. So my question is how can I aggregate such info to get this broader info? I know from other platforms (like Decipher) that they automatically probvide this aggregated info. Is this also available on Qualtrics or is there maybe a matching list of browser user agents to devices?

Advanced quotas based on sum of embedded data

I’m not sure if I’ve explained this as well as I could with the title … First we have our simple quota based on the country embedded data field, e.g. 50 respondents from UK (straightforward) But then in the survey we ask them about interactions with different groups: so 1 respondent might interact with X number of people from Y groups. So after completing the survey we might have: 1 UK responsethat covered3 people in Group A10 people in Group B2 people in Group C In addition to restricting UK responses to 50, can we also restrict UK-Group A to 80 people, UK-Group B to 150 people, etc (values are just for example)? So when a new survey session commences, I want to be able to check the complete dataset and see the current sum for the Group A embedded data field and check it is less than 80, and once it reaches 80 close the quota? And for extra complexity, can this work as a “least fill” ? Thanks!

Balanced within subject design

I’m trying to design a balanced within-subjects design using embedded data, but I’m struggling to make my design work.  Here’s a description of my study:IV1: Label type scenarios (Three labels: green, red, blue )  IV2: Target type scenarios (Nine targets: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I) Each target is paired with each label: so i have Target red A, blue A, green A.Here’s a description of what I want my design to look like: each participant should see all 9 targets each participant should see each target once only (e.g., the target is a square. if they see the red square, they shouldn’t see the green or blue square) each participant should see three “green label”, three “red label”, and three “blue label” scenarios. for example: a participants might see the scenarios in this order: green A, blue B, red C, green D,  blue E, red F, blue G, green H, red I. In this example, there are  3 greens, 3 blues, 3 reds, but each letter appears once.my current embedded data looks something like this:red_c

Using side by side but validating the whole row as a single question

Hi, I have a side by side question set up where there are 2 columns (one with 4 multi-select options and one with a text entry). Is there a way to validate one row as if it’s a single question and force respondent to select/type a response? Like if a respondent selected any of the first 4 options, the respondent is not required to type anything in the text field and vice versa.

adding piped text in mouse overs/hovers

I have mouse overs /hovers in my survey in a) question texts and b) response options. Now, for some of these, the mouseover/tooltip text itself should be based on meta data of my particpants. E.g. assume I’m doing an engagement survey and participants’ metadata has a data field called “business_unit” that stores, well, the business unit of each employee. Now, I sometimes have question texts or response options like “How do you rate your business unit?” or “My business unit is XYZ”. So when the participant hovers over the word “business unit” I want show the business unit based on what is stored in the particpant’s meta data. For the tool tip itself I was following this approach here: https://servicehub.ucdavis.edu/servicehub?id=ucd_kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0006562&spa=1&sys_id=c52ef409db10a4d098c6ac1b139619e7 and then in the survey for my specific question I’m going to the html view and was adding some code like:  How do you rate your <span data-text="${e://Field/bus

Preview without logging in

Hey everyone!I need to do a pilot test of my survey for my research. I am aware that when I import into SPSS Qualtrics separates between the preview answers and the ones which occured post survey activation. As I want to just test some things on my survey and I have no room for deleting active responses afterwards, I need to distribute it on preview to a short number of people for them to try it. But as I generate a link, everyone needs to sign in or log in to try it. If you know anyway to counter this, I would deeply appreciate it!Thanks a lot.

Hiding the "powered by Qualtrics" button also on the "end survey" page

Thanks to some help here in the community I was able to hide the “powered by Qualtrics” button that usually appears on each survey page at the lower right corner. I’m using the following JS code on the first question in each of my survey blocks: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function(){ /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed*/ jQuery('#Plug').attr('style', 'display:none !important');});This works just fine. However, it unfortunately doesn’t work on the very last survey page, i.e. where the “end of survey” message appears because on that particular page there is no option to add JS code. Is there any other way I could hide that button?

Moving statements to middle of side-by-side

Hi All,  I have a side by side RPT survey that I want to ask about their knowledge before a training and then knowledge after a training. Having researched it a bit in terms of format, I want to set the before likert on the left, the statements they are answering in the middle and the likert for after the training on the right. So, likert, statements, likert in a side by side. Currently I don’t see an option for moving the statements (they are on the left followed by two likert sections). Is there a work around? Much appreciated.
