Hello,
I have a survey where I use embedded data for display logic and analysis. I have a need to push embedded data through a survey question so the data is recorded as survey response data...but need the question to be hidden.
I created a text response qustion and used the "Default choices" feature to set up the prepopulation of my embedded data...but I just learned that if the question is hidden using false display logic, the data won't get populated.
Is there a way to hide a question, but still push embedded data through it so it's captured as survey response data?
Thanks,
Leslie

You can add this to your question JS:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function () {
this.questionContainer.style.display = "none";
});

Thank you! The script worked for hiding the question but it didn't record the embedded data as a survey response. I'm afraid if a question is hidden or not displayed...it doesn't ingest a 'response'...
