CSS for Column Width in the Side by Side Question

Hello, I was trying to find the CSS style definition for adjusting the 1st column width in side by side questions. Figured it out before someone answered, it is: <style> .WidthStrut {width:35px !important; } </style> Replace 35px with whatever width

Export status of partial responses in progress via the API

Hi all, I'm using python to access the v3 API in Qualtrics. I'm having no problem using _responseexports_ to get the full response set of completed responses, but can't seem to find a REST API call to get information on in progress and responses that have not yet been started. This is a survey in which I generated individual links per respondent, but any API call to just get a list of partial responses and either the currently answered record or the recipient email / embedded data is all I need. I have the export of the links in a spreadsheet, and so even if I can programmatically get a list of users that have begun the survey would give me most of what I need to know. Any thoughts? It seems like this should be a core part of the API.

How to change multiple choice question position while creating a survey?

I am creating a survey consisting images as questions. All the questions are multiple choice with the multiple choice answers options as images in a column, and I wanted the question (image) to be on the left side of the answer option column as a separate column itself. I knew a possible way is to edit the Javascript but I need some help on that. Below is the image of my question: ! First row is the question and the next rows are multiple choice answers. Instead of the question on the top, I want it to be on the left side, on the center relative to the answer rows. Is there a possible way to do this? Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Has anyone connected Qualtrics to Krealinks via API?

We currently use Krealinks to run our Research community, and have connected it to Qualtrics Via API. I would like to know if there's anyone else who currently has a similar setup and how you find it?

In-question data visualization for constant sum?

I've recently completed a survey on the Qualtrics platform in which a constant sum question was used with slider bars. What made this question unique, however, was that the question also included a doughnut chart which dynamically displayed the values attributed to each choice within the question and listed a message that "You have X% remaining." Can anyone offer insight into how this might have been accomplished? Image attached for reference. !

linking answers to other variables

Is it possible to assign an embedded data field to a value that is determined by a respondent's responses but is available in an (external) Excel file? For example: The respondent answers a question asking for their zip code (a text entry question). I have an Excel file that links each zip code with the latitude and longitude of the "center" of the zip code. I would like to define two embedded variables, one for the latitude and one for the longitude that corresponds to the zip code given by the respondent. There are solutions that use branching or drill down variables, but so far these would involve too much work (one branch for every zip code in the US for example), or would require the user to select the lat and lon after picking their zip code. Kind of awkward to have the respondent see the lat and lon at all. Would like this process to happen behind the scenes. Thanks.

data fields connected to respondent's selections

When respondent's select a school from a long drop down list, or in a drill down (state, city, school), I need to be able to link that school (name) to the school id. I don't want the respondent to see the school id -- they only select the school name. But when I download the data, I would like to have a variable for the school name AND a variable that shows the corresponding school id. The number of schools and ids could be as high as 30,000. Not sure if this is baked in somewhere or not. Can't seem to find anything for this situation. Thanks.

Linking back to Qualtrics from external site

I am trying to set up a survey where my participants begin and end in Qualtrics, but redirect to Sawtooth in the middle of the survey to complete a max diff exercise. I understand how to pass information such as ResponseID from Qualtrics to Sawtooth and then back to Qualtrics within the link URL, but I am having an issue with getting Qualtrics to recognize my participant as the same participant. Does anyone know what data I would need to send from Sawtooth back to Qualtrics within the URL to get Qualtrics to recognize that the same participant is re-entering the survey to complete the remainder of the task?

Adding contact to contact list using API 2.5 query

Hey! I am working on the query using Qualtrics API 2.5, which would add contact to contact list. I struggling with adding custom embedded data to the query. I have added manually this embedded data to list, and now i would like to know what is the query syntax to put the value into it. It is pretty simple for existing embedded data like FIrstName and LastName. My query looks like this ( pls don't focus on the focus on the beginning, it's just a concept.) In the below concept i would like to put specific value (SV_XXXXXX) to embedded data named SV. How it should be written? www.XXXXXXXXX&FirstName=Piotr&LastName=Siudak&SV=SV_XXXXXX

Intercepts not working on Internet Explorer browser

We are having issues to see intercepts on IE. We are using the slider, but have seen issues with other creatives as well. Qualtrics recommendation has been to reach out to our IT team as this might be related to our page security setting for this particular browser as due to the nature of our business we have a private website with high security in place. Has anybody seen similar issues? We need to know where to start investigating. THANKS

CSS for navigation boxes, matrix questions?

After customising quite a few surveys in Qualtrics, there are some elements that I've repeatedly struggled to adjust to my full satisfaction. Does anyone know of a canonical reference document that shows the CSS relating to Next and Back buttons (especially their position - I can only ever get them to show in the bottom-right of each page, next to one another)? I'm also having difficulty with matrix questions - I can't figure out the CSS that controls the 'fade on hover' behaviour for alternate lines. I have a darker shade behind every other statement / ranking line, which currently fades to white on mouse-over and I'd like to disable this behaviour. Any help appreciated!

Character Limit in Hover Box

I have a question that requires an additional definition, and I have it coded so that when you hover over a word, you see additional text. However, the hover text box is not big enough to display my whole definition. It seems to be related to character count. Is there a way to make the box bigger or allow more characters? Thanks!

"You Must Use Whole Numbers" error?

Hello Qualtrics Community, We've had several of our survey takers have this error - when they are entering into a total sum question, they get the error saying that they have to use whole numbers... Even though they are using whole numbers. Some were using Chrome, some Firefox, and restarting the survey doesn't seem to fix their problem. Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it? Thanks, Rebecca

Salesforce response mapping permissions error

In my Response Mapping, I am mapping to some custom fields, but I keep seeing this error message: "Error. SoapFault exception: [sf:INVALID_TYPE] INVALID_TYPE: sObject type 'permissiontest__c' is not supported. If you are attempting to use a custom object, be sure to append the '__c' after the entity name. Please reference your WSDL or the describe call for the appropriate names." The field shows up in the available fields to map to, but I still get this error message. What's going on?
