We are using Qualtrics to present a questionnaire to participants in a mental health study that we are running.
Our survey participants arrive first at our website where they are screened. For those who are eligible, we then:
i) make a call to the Qualtrics API (API/v3/mailinglists/<mailing_list_id>/contacts) to create a contact in the study mailing list
ii) make another call to the Qualtrics API to create a distribution list (API/v3/distributions) which returns the distribution id
ii) use the distribution id to get the survey link (API/v3/distributions/<distribution_id>/links?surveyId=<survey_id>).
The issue we have is that each time we create a distribution list a link is generated for _all _the contacts in the mailing list. Using the Qualtrics user interface it is possible to create a distribution list for a particular survey participant, but this does not seem to be an option via the API.
The only workaround I can see is that we create a separate mailing list for each participant.
I am sure that this challenge must have been faced before.
I would value any help the community can offer to resolve this ?
