Hidden Embedded Data for an Email Workflow | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hello - In the second survey of a Longitudinal experience, I'm trying to set embedded data based on an answer selection in Q1 so that I can use it in an email workflow.
Ex: Q1 asks them to select their name. If they select Captain America, embedded data (their username/login) equals cptmerica. Then I can set the email workflow to come from the user. We have custom from domains set up so I can then use the login as embedded data with our email domain.
I do know who the person completing the survey is. However, this is the second survey in a Longitudinal survey. I'm having the 1st survey completed by one person, that triggers a workflow to send the 2nd survey to the email to the address they entered in the survey. The 2nd survey is completed by a different person.
I found a few articles that got me wondering if what I am trying to accomplish is possible. Maybe it is but not how I'm thinking?
I've attached a QSF with some notes in it in the workflow, survey flow, and example questions if it helps at all.

This should be possible using embedded data. In the email trigger which is started after the first survey response, you just load the To Box with the embedded data from the first survey. You will just have to have a url (which you can passes embedded data from the first survey) for the second survey. The workflow to trigger the second survey will be in the first survey. Pretty straightforward as far as I am understanding it.
