So went to the APIs and struggling with how to access a contact list. It’s failing on the Directory ID. When I search the support documentation, I see that the organization has a “default Directory ID” and I can find the Contact List’s Directory ID via the URL when I open it (or when I export it). But none of them are working in the API. So I’m assuming I’m missing something as to identifying the DirectoryID. So, where do I find Community Help on API calls to Contact Lists?
Thanks @Sachin Nandikol! Interesting. I’ll look it over.
Hi!you can definitely do this, and you don’t need the QR codes for the 5 digit codes.You can use a contact (directory) list to capture their Response ID (a unique code). When they finish the first survey, send them the follow on link 90 minutes later with the ResponseID in the URL. You can show them all of their initial responses if you like. Ask them the new questions. Even if you don’t show them their responses to Survey #1, you can port those in using the Contact List, so that your second survey has ALL of the data (first and second surveys) in one place. I’ve done this a lot, and it’s not hard. You can do it via Workflow.The Workflow allows you to combine responses from totally different forms...but you'll need a common field (unique field). Qualtrics only allows two options for linking to a Contact List - either email or External Data Reference. Email rarely will work for workflow since users in your process may need to create more than one artifact (application, review, app
while we wait, can you share the use cases? You've got me curious about how you're thinking of the use for it? And how you're using it (not implementing)...
the ability (I submitted as an enhancement) to "filter" a report on a field. So if we have a field called "department" - looking at the results, I want to be able to change the report to show only the results for a certain department...wait for it....From a drop down (instead of having to create a "permanent" filter or multiple copies of the report. It should be "simple" to do...
I have a set of "principles" and "rules" I promote for better surveys. Here are a few: 1. Never ask a question if you know the answer (or can get the data elsewhere) 2. Use dropdowns rather than fill-ins whenever possible - removes spelling errors and variations that make data analysis difficult on the back-end 3. when working with workflow and passing information in to your form/survey, copy and paste - don't type it (I don't know how many times when things didn't work it was because of capitilization or spelling errors between the variable name - header in csv - and the use in Survey Flow) 4. use the text entry "form" type to make your survey/form "feel" shorter Marty
Hi Rachel, Not sure what you mean...but my gut is telling me I would solve this with a contact list. Do you want different "verbatims" to be unique based on the respondents? Do you want them to show as multiple choice options? Like in a drop down?
hi! Besides faculty using it for tests/quizzes, I also have researchers using it for data collection (one is transfering data from hand written documents). We recently used it for Choir Auditions where the evaluators (music directors) used the tool to evaluate the performer (all 8 at the same time) - we presented the director with the information on the student (through a contact list using the authenticator) and then each could rate the student on different aspects of their audition. I've helped units use it a LOT for workflow - we actually stood up a 3 hour class on how to do workflow with Qualtrics because of the demand. With the ability to pass information into a form via a URL and/or a Contact List, workflow has been a great player for us.
Hi! You said, "but those other people are in my same brand. This is the first person I've shared something with outside of my brand." Do both of you have "Collaborating Outside of your Organization" permissions set by your Brand Admins? Both need to have the permissions turned on. Marty
