Yeah! That is the best place to put it. And Embedded Data Fields show up in your reporting :)

Of course! And it should only execute it once. One thing I strongly recommend is keeping the code inside the Lifecycle methods of the Qualtrics Survey (i.e. `Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload()`) this will ensure that things run at the right time and only once. Use the `AddOnLoad()` for calculating, populating, and storing data that is needed to be done _before_ display, and then use `Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady()` for reading data for display. It's a complicated topic, but those two pointers will get you 90% of the way there!

For sure! You can store it as an Embedded Data Field using this Javascript: `Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData('FIELD', value);` `Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.getEmbeddedData('FIELD');` (I included the code for retrieving EDF's, too, just for kicks)

Ah! Well, that is to be expected in this scenario. It's frustrating, but part of the system's functionality. One less intrusive way of debugging is using `console.log()` to display things in the Developer Console of your browser.

Is this in the Preview Mode? The code runs for both the Mobile and Desktop versions of the code, independently.

How do you display the question type - Constant sum with total (Matrix table), in your dashboard?

Hm... it won't let me post the code snippet... Here is some JQuery Documentation to get you started! - How to set values in jQuery http://api.jquery.com/val/ - On Change Listeners in jQuery https://api.jquery.com/change/ - How to select items in jQuery https://www.w3schools.com/jquery/jquery_ref_selectors.asp

I think this discussion board is fine - I want to make sure this solution is available to any others who are searching for it later, but if it gets too complex or involved, I can DM you! If you're familiar with jQuery, you can do the following (I'm going to explain it conceptually, and if that doesn't do the trick, we can dive into the actual code. Don't be concerned if you don't understand, but I encourage experimentation and engaged learning so you can adjust to the platform through the process). - Use `$('#xx')` notation to capture references to each of the fields in your Matrix table - Put an `.on('change' () ={})` listener to those captured fields - When the `change` method is called, then get the sum of the fields, and then update the value of your display. Here is some sample code (not usable in the API) Let's say your matrix question rows have a class` 'matrix-row'`, and your Display field has an id of 'sum-display'; You would go like this:

How can I hide the anchor on a sliding scale question?

Heck yeah!! Here is some code that I spun up really quickly for you! ``` Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/ }); Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function() { /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed*/ const PREREQ_SELECTOR = '#QID1 > div.Inner.BorderColor.MAVR > div > fieldset > div > ul'; const SLIDER_SELECTOR = 'QID6~1~handle'; const PREREQ = $(PREREQ_SELECTOR); const SLIDER = $(SLIDER_SELECTOR); console.log(SLIDER); console.log('Hiding Slider'); SLIDER.hide(); PREREQ.click(() => { console.log('Showing Slider'); SLIDER.show(); }) }); Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnUnload(function() { /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is unloaded*/ }); ``` Put this in the Slider's JS panel. The PREREQ_ID is the Selector of the *List* of items that are selectable. SLIDER is the Selector of the, well, the Slider haha. Here is a _cru

Random code generator

Yeah! Qualtrics has a random number generator, but it can't be relied on to not give repeats (you might give two people the same random number). One thing I would do is use a Javascript library like short-unique-id https://www.npmjs.com/package/short-unique-id. If you need help implementing that, let me know!

How to create a variable that tracks quota group assignment(s)

I can't figure out a way to do this with the Platform! I might be able to do it with code, but not without a bit of elbow grease. Sorry about that!

OOOooohh, I misunderstood your question. I missed the part about > It feels like quota tracking variables should automatically be exported with no additional programming, but we've yet to see them in our data exports Let me look into that.

! Here is how you set up a Quota that fills into the smallest bucket - you set a rule saying if it matches more than one, put it into the one with the 'Least Met' (to use Qualtrics/Survey vernacular) (and then here is the sample quota to the right.. it doesn't pertain to the question, but shows how you can use a bit of logic to have multiple data points combine into a single quota) !

Ahhhh! Well, I want to help you in any way I can! Let's see how much I can get you started without using Javascript - I lean on it heavily but want to use the Platform as much as possible.

How to create a variable that tracks quota group assignment(s)

For sure! It's not too complicated, but when it comes to the multiple match setup, you either need to have the paid package that performs that for you code it in the Javascript API. That process is rather lengthy - it requires pulling the current quota values, performing logic on how to determine which to add it to (what Embedded Data Fields are supplied vs. the quota with the lowest 'Met Count' that it falls into). Are you familiar with Javascript?

Yeah! What you can do is as follows: In your survey flow, assign Embedded Data Fields that follow the needs of your survey Then, in your Quota Section, set it to be triggered by Embedded Data Fields as seen below: ! So, if their FAVORITE_COLOR (an embedded data field) is equal to BLUE, it will increment the quota! (Quick Gotcha warning: The Quota count is slow to update in the Development Panel. Create a Report that references the quota for instant results. If that doesn't make sense, let me know)

For sure! What Regex statement did you use? @TomG had a cool library that he uses in Javascript if you're able to use that. It's called Cleave.js. If not, we can get you the right Regex String!

If you are familiar with Javascript, I recommend Moment.js - it has all the tools needed to take the complexity out of Date formatting.
