As I am working on a certificate of completion example with custom code, I have found there’s a Signature type of question. And when I was trying to get the signature into a Text/Graphics block, I noticed only “Question Type” was available. Is there a way I could show this in such a block, even if it’s with custom code?

Pipe signature question response into a Graphics/Text block
Best answer by ashleigh_quaill
As I understand it, the signature question will store the answer as an image which you can’t then embed back into the Text/Graphics block. Are you trying to include the signature of the person completing the survey/form? In the past, I have used a static signature image (rather than piped text) to go into an email or displayed page.
The only way I have successfully used piped text to drop in an image is by storing the image in a Qualtrics library (or could be stored elsewhere at a public URL) and then using the URL as the “piped text” in HTML for the question. So for example, I store a photograph of a staff member in the Qualtrics library and store that URL as an embedded data field in the directory called PhotoURL then in the question, I use HTML for an image with source “{PhotoURL}” - it will then retrieve the corresponding photo for the respondent based on the directory.
Not exactly what you were looking for but maybe it will give you some ideas to bounce off?

Yeah. That’s what I’m trying to do. Thank you for the information!
