Email Trigger Piped Multiple Choice Formatting

Thanks @TomG !

Do you know how I would pipe the variable into the email template?

In the example I gave, it would be ${e://Field/pipedAnswers}

I’m getting a blank string when I console log the pipedAnswer.

For “${q://...}” do I need to replace the “...” with the question id?  Is there a way to determine what that is?

Yes, you need to replace ${q://...} with the actual piped string that contains your question’s selected choices. You also need to put the code inside an appropriate function such as Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(). 

When i try to do something like this:

jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText")

I get the following error:

SE API Error: TypeError: jQuery(...).replace is not a function

You’ve tried to use replace on a jQuery object instead of a string.  This seems unrelated to your original question since the jQuery command would be for a text entry field.

I see what you mean.

This is what I ended up with, but still getting an empty string:

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function() {

var pipedAnswers = "${q://QID1/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices}".replace(/, /g,"<br>");

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("pipedAnswers",pipedAnswers);

    console.log("pipedAnswers",pipedAnswers)

});

In my email trigger I have:

${e://Field/pipedAnswers}

That script can’t be on the same page as QID1 (the pipe of QID1 would be empty).

Thanks for the help @TomG !  Worked like a charm!
