Hello! I've been wrestling with this problem for a while, but due to my inexperience with Javascript, I haven't got too far. I apologise in advance for the hot mess of a code down below!!My goal is to capture the answer of a question within a loop, each time the loop occurs, and create an embedded data field.Currently, I'm adding this to the end of the javascript terminal.Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function() {var current_loop = ${lm://CurrentLoopNumber};var answer = $(this.QID44).select('.InputText');var answer_instance= ("Intention" + current_loop){ Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData(answer_instance, answer);}});I think my issues are: ${lm://CurrentLoopNumber} isn't an appropriate way to reference the current loop number?$(this.QID44).select('.InputText') won't collect the answer from QID44In general, the javascript terminal says theres an excess '{', and won't allow me to save and quit! Can you spot it?Another thing is that the text entry for this question (QID44) is piped text default text, which I then hide from the participant. Not sure if this affects anything.Would love some help on this, if anyone has any insight :) I can give more context about the project, if needed. Thank you!!(More about my loop and merge set up, if you need it to understand why I'm in this mess.I ask my participants initially to submit up to 30 free-text answers in a matrix table.I then randomly loop through the same question set for just 10 of these answers. Three days later, my participants come back, to give more details about their answers, so I need to pipe their original answers into this later survey using embedded data fields. Let me know if anything/nothing makes sense...)

Hi there,the problem is the QID44.my code would look like this:Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function(){let loopNumber = "${lm://CurrentLoopNumber}"let qId = this.questionIdlet embeddedDataFieldname = "textEntry_"embeddedDataFieldname = embeddedDataFieldname +loopNumberconsole.log('QR~'+qId)let text = document.getElementById('QR~'+qId).valueQualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData(embeddedDataFieldname, text);});in your case the $('#QR~'+this.questionId) might do the trick. the code above works though and I rather do things with plain JavaScript. Hope this helpsBest regardsRudi

and here the code for the single answer multi selectQualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function(){let loopNumber = "${lm://CurrentLoopNumber}"let qId = this.questionIdletembeddedDataFieldname = "selectedAnswerLabel_"embeddedDataFieldname = embeddedDataFieldname +loopNumberlet selectedChoice = this.getSelectedChoices()console.log(qId+'-'+selectedChoice+'-label')let selectedAnswerLabel = document.getElementById(qId+'-'+selectedChoice+'-label').innerTextQualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData(embeddedDataFieldname,selectedAnswerLabel);});
