janessen I'm generating a QSF file for importing into the survey. I'd suggest creating a simple survey with some flow elements and then use Tools -> Import/Export -> Export Survey to see a sample QSF (it's just a JSON file).
I had a response from Qualtrics support. They said there's no way to extend the timeout for the web service in the survey flow and so I'll need to modify the external API to respond differently.
Thanks @Shashi, Unfortunately that's not going to help. I already have Fire and Forget unchecked and the reason I can't apply any branch logic is that the embedded data field is not populated with data when the form moves on. I'm not getting the returned result as the Web Service at the Qualtrics end gives up before the Web Service server can supply the data.
I can think of three options: 1. Vocalize - build a dashboard plucking the relevant questions from the various surveys to provide the overall metrics, but only only show the relevant questions to each client. Note that this is an additional product within Qualtrics. 2. Create one survey and distribute using different embedded data in the url given to your clients and then only show the custom questions to the relevant client's customers using the survey flow. Note that this would be 'hackable' by your other clients by removing or altering the custom part of the url, so you would need to make sure the embedded data is obfuscated in some way and that your survey logic forbids access to the questions when the variable is empty. You can then create reports within Qualtrics, one for each client with only their custom questions and provide data for the overall values. 3. Use the API to extract the results from the different surveys (or from the single survey in scenario 2 above) and build be
I haven't figured this out yet, but just sharing some progress. The throbber is in a div called '.pace' that has a '.pace-activity' div and the animation is controlled by CSS. In the browser I can add some text using the following: ``` <script type="text/javascript"> var pacers = $$('.pace'); if (pacers.length > 0) { var message = document.createTextNode('Please wait while we'); var br = document.createElement('br'); var div = document.createElement('div'); div.appendChild(message); div.appendChild(br); pacers[0].appendChild(div); div.style = 'position: absolute;top: 40%;left: 0;right: 0;display: block;margin: auto;text-align: center;color: #fff;'; } </script> ``` However, if I load this in the Header section of Look and Feel it doesn't work. So the header isn't instantiated here. So, if anyone knows how to get JS working in this context I'd be grateful.
Thanks @YASH1T , That's not quite what I'm after. When I see the icon there are no questions on the page (see image below). I'll keep digging. !
Thanks @LaurenK, That's working now. I've gone old school. I hope you like it. Cheers, Damian
I'm trying to submit my survey, but the file submission question seems to be a text field, rather than a file upload question. Am I missing something?
Hi Kim, I'm assuming you mean downloading from the Report page where you get a QID1_FILE_ID.zip file or similar when clicking 'Download all files'? If so, then this behaviour is by design as the survey participants might upload files with the same filename. The garbled characters before the filename in the zip archive refer to the response ID. If you go to the 'Data & Analysis' tab and choose 'Export & Import' and then 'Export data' you can download a CSV file that contains all the submission information split into different fields. One of these fields will list the filename matching the original files submitted. You could try using that to rename the files in a batch process.
I've managed to get something working for this. It requires the following CSS in the Look & Feel -> Style section (controls the position of the images): ``` .brown { position: absolute; top: 38px; left: 0px; } .bears { position: relative; width: 800px; } ``` The following in the HTML of the slider choice (for the images): ``` <div class="bears"><img src="insert the black-bear-background-image" style="width: 590px; height: 170px;" /> <div class="brown"><img src="insert the brown-bear-background-image" style="width: 214px; height: 103px;" /></div> </div> ``` And the following JavaScript for the slider question (controls the behaviour of the red image): ``` Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function() { var qid = this.questionId; $(qid).observe('mousemove', function(event) { var cur_pos = $(qid+"~1~handle").style.left; $$(".brown")[0].setStyle("left: "+cur_pos); }); }); ``` Here's my sample black bear image (black normal
Thanks. Assuming your instructions are in a decorative block (Text/Graphic), how does the following work? I've reduced the max-width to avoid the bleeding and set the question text to be 400px wide. The DB rule resets the CSS values for those legend elements. ``` .Skin .SkinInner { width: 100%; max-width: 1200px; margin: auto; } .Skin fieldset legend { float: left; width: 400px; white-space: normal; } .Skin .DB fieldset legend { float: inherit; width: inherit; white-space: inherit; } .QuestionBody { margin-left: 200px; } ```
Can you provide a screenshot of what you've got so far?
I would try recording and then updating the value as embedded data. You could add some JavaScript to the page to update the value at regular intervals and then use the embedded value as the start of the timer when the question loads/reloads. This would work with individual links, but possibly not for an anonymous link. You might need to add some cookie behaviour in that instance.
You could try adding some custom css in the Look & Feel -> Style section. This would apply to all questions: ``` .Skin fieldset legend { float: left; width: auto; } .QuestionBody { margin-left: 200px; } ``` It might need some adjustment for the mobile display.
Hi Shayla, This would definitely be a JavaScript solution and not a trivial one. Just to be clear, do you want the whole of the 'red' distribution to slide or only a marker on the distribution? What is the value that the user will be providing once they've made a decision about the placement? Do you want coordinates as in the example or just an 'x' value?
This shows how to add embedded data to a contact list. Further up the page shows how in use the embedded data in the survey. https://www.qualtrics.com/support/survey-platform/survey-module/survey-flow/standard-elements/embedded-data/#SettingValuesFromAContactList
You could programmatically create a custom QSF file that has the display logic embedded in it. Loop through the students in the course to generate the embedded data fields in the contact, the answers in the big question and the display logic for the subsequent questions. Display logic in the QSF file will look something like this for each question: { "DisplayLogic": { "0":{"0":{ "LogicType":"Question", "QuestionID":"QID6", "QuestionIsInLoop":"no", "ChoiceLocator":"q:\\/\\/QID6\\/ChoiceTextEntryValue", "Operator":"EqualTo", "QuestionIDFromLocator":"QID6", "LeftOperand":"q:\\/\\/QID6\\/ChoiceTextEntryValue", "RightOperand":"A", "Type":"Expression",
The following JavaScript should work for a single slider. It assumes you have 'Show value' selected for the question. Go to the cog icon to the left of the questions and select 'Add JavaScript...': Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/ // the id of the question for referencing the value var q_id = this.questionId; // this is the new element that will contain the value of the slider var value_box = QBuilder('div',{'style': 'float: right;'}); // this is question itself var c = this.questionContainer; // add the new element to the end of the question c.appendChild(value_box); // when the mouse moves up, update the value Event.observe(c, 'mouseup', function(event) { // we can't use the 'this' keyword in here for the question // so we grab the value from the tooltip // note that the value 1 below refers to the choice ind
Thanks Anthony.
Thank again. That's what I'm using for branch elements (FL_n, up to 109 is my biggest so far), but for blocks within the branches I'm using things like 'FL_W17xG9xxxxxxxxx' so that they match the corresponding block for ease of troubleshooting.
Thanks for the answer Mohammedali, I can see the Flow ID, and in fact I set it programmatically in the QSF file that I upload. I'm wanting to know the format. 'FL_' seems to be mandatory, but I'm not sure what happens after that. I've found with Block IDs that 18 characters works best (i.e., BL_ + 15 alphanumeric characters), but I'm after something more definitive than that.
