"Various filtering options" response export

Hi,I was going through the documentation on the new response export (https://api.qualtrics.com/guides/docs/Guides/Common%20Tasks/getting-survey-responses-via-the-new-export-apis.md) and saw the following:"You can use various filtering options to this request to retrieve a subset of the responses to speed up processing." Which got me very excited. However, the various filtering options seems to be just one option namely using a filter that was created manually using the UI. Am I overseeing something? I would love to just be able to create/use filters completely using the API without having to add them by hand using the UI. Thank you in advance!

Contact Export Statistics and Embedded Data

Problem Statement:Export contact data(Contact Statistics and Embedded data) filtered by statistics and embedded data. How this can be achieved? Proposed solution: https://yul1.qualtrics.com/API/v3/directories/{directoryId}/contacts/search- Can we apply filter in this API on Embedded data and contact statistics fields and can we fetch records more than 10000? https://yul1.qualtrics.com/API/v3/directories/{directoryId}/export-contacts- Can we export contact statistics using this API

Changing usage tags via the API

Hi!We are currently using the survey-tagging function for our reporting. (The dropdown field that appears when you publish a survey or the menu available under [Tools | Survey tagging] in the survey editor.)Unfortunately, we now face the requirement to change a couple of hundred project labels, so my colleague asked whether we could do this using the API. But there seems to be no such field among the usual suspects, i.e., endpoints such as survey definitions or survey options.Do I see this correctly or is it hidden somewhere else? Just want to make sure.

How to extract all ProjectID with API

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a way to bulk extract the project IDs of my EX projects. I would like to know if there is an API similar to https://fra1.qualtrics.com/API/v3/surveys. I have read the documentation but haven't found anything about it. Thanks for the help, Enrico

Aligning API responses for Survey Definition and Export Response endpoints

I have noticed that the survey-definitions/{id}/questions endpoint (https://api.qualtrics.com/5d17de1a27084-example-use-cases-walkthrough#retrieve-an-existing-survey) returns question names that don’t align with the export-responses endpoint (https://api.qualtrics.com/6b00592b9c013-start-response-export). For example, when querying the survey definition, I have a question with QuestionID: QID1, DataExportTag: Email, QuestionType: TE, and then when exporting this response the field is actually called Q1D1_TEXT. At the moment it looks like I will need to detect what the question type is and append the expected type to the question ID myself. Probably _1, _2... for multiple choice, matrix, rank, etc, and _TEXT for text entry. Is there a list of what suffixes I will need to do this, or a better option for finding the export names in advance? If not, surely these should align in some way, and surely there shoud be a field in the survey definition which actually gives you the name or names o

Delete users API saying user not found?

Hello, I’m trying to remove users that have accounts in Qualtrics but have either never logged in or haven’t logged in for over a year. I pulled a list of users from the User Admin section of my dashboard setup. This showed me their last login date but it did not have their userId. So I used the “List User” function of the API to pull a list of all my users into a CSV file that does have their userId and then did a vlookup against the export from the dashboard above. So with these two files I was able to make a list of users that I wanted to delete that has their userId. Now I want to use the CSV file with the API to delete the users. The only column in my CSV file is called userId and the user ID’s are listed beneath. The problem I’m having is that it’s returning a message saying that the user is not found: {"meta":{"requestId":"72375b15-4e33-4441-aa09-7b66ba723968","httpStatus":"404 - Not Found","error":{"errorCode":"DU_3","errorMessage":"User not found."}}}User details: {'userId': '

Chrome Warning that Qualtrics using a deprecated feature: Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.

Hi everyone, Google Chrome is saying that the one of the JS files served by Qualtrics is using an unload event listener that will soon be deprecated. The file: https://siteintercept.qualtrics.com/dxjsmodule/8.29a12639f19bc166d5bc.chunk.js?Q_CLIENTVERSION=2.21.0&Q_CLIENTTYPE=web&Q_BRANDID= The offending line; e.addEventListener ? e.addEventListener(t, n, !1) : e.attachEvent ? e.attachEvent("on" + t, n) : e["on" + this.capFirst(t)] && (e["on" + this.capFirst(t)] = n)) Does anyone know if Qualtrics is going to address this? I searched for this on Google and only found one results that wasn’t really related. I can’t believe we’re the only company on this planet with this issue.

Mass close tickets

Is there a way, maybe with an API or something, where I could go in and mass close tickets? My org has thousands of tickets that are active from surveys that took place years ago - nobody is actually going to go and close really old tickets.

Automating Qualtrics Survey Creation Using R statistical software

In Qualtrics I have a general survey template that I use to make hundreds of surveys. These surveys are almost identical with the only difference between them being certain words on the surveys vary between surveys (e.g., client name, various brand names, etc.). The questions and structure of the survey remain the same. Currently I have to duplicate a survey and the search and replace brand names, and repeat. I am most familiar coding in R and would love if possible to find a way I can automatically create these surveys in R using a package like httr2. My general thought is load in .qsf file of template into r. Make relevant changes to the qsf file for any number of surveys, and then have those surveys automatically created in my Qualtrics account. Has anyone done something like this and can give guidance on the workflow?

Brainstorm: Generate Personal Links via API with Transaction Data

We are looking to distribute Qualtrics surveys using our customer facing mobile app’s in-app notification system. The app is expected to push a survey invite link to customers when they reach certain points of the customer journey, in real-time (think for example when a customer scans their ticket into an event venue). The survey invite needs to be tied to the customer and the specific transaction that triggered the invite, which is all stored within the notification system. At a high-level, we see two general ways of doing this: Anonymous link with URL parameters We can store the base anonymous URL in the push notification template, and then dynamically append the customer’s information + transaction data to the end of the URL so that it gets passed through to the survey response. (ie [AnonymousURL]?[TransactionField1]=[Value]&[TransactionField2]=[Value]...) While this path gets the base job done and is the simplest to implement, it has some cons: The customer could manually manipulat

Modify a drilldown questin using survey API

Hello, The survey API documents how to modify multiple choice, matrix and other types of questions. There is no indication about how to modify a drilldown question. Has anybody used the survey API (or any other) to programmatically modify a drilldown question? This is my use case: we run a continous survey for a customer. This survey has several drildown questions to chose related values. Let’s say cities with a store in a state. We provide to the drilldown the list of states and stores, once the client selects the state, the next drilldown only contains stores in that state. Stores in a state can change maybe monthly due to new ones joining the brand or old ones leaving the brand. Every month we must update the mapping table. I want to do that programmatically connected with my customer’s usiness systems. In order to do that I download the mapping table from their business systems, but I cannot see how to push it to update the drilldown question definition. Thanks in advance,

API Qualtrics to download json file with question Title instead of QIDs

Dear community, I am using Surveys Response Import/Export API to download my data in json format. The json I have has for keys the QID of the questions. Is there a way to get directly the json file with the question “title” (i.e. the question variable name)? For now, my best option is to download the csv of the responses and match the QID of the json to the variable names… But maybe there is a better way? Thank you for your help.
