I'm running a survey and I'm looking to record or save the link/URL through which respondents enter using embedded data. I checked here but when I try adding embedded data in the survey flow, I can't find the options (current page URL, time spent on site, total visited page count) that seem to be available for actions.

How to record the link through which respondents enter survey?

Hello madamimadam In the case where you are using the anonymous link, you can use Javascript in one of your survey questions which will store the URL in embedded data:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()
{
var a = window.location.href;
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("URL", a );
});

You can refer to the below link to get a better idea about how you can set current page URL, time spent on site, total visited page count as embedded data.

That's not really what I was looking for since I'm not using actions. Is it possible to record the URL in a survey flow that doesn't use actions? If I'm not mistaken, actions are just for website feedback surveys.
I have a survey that I distribute with an anonymous link. Any chance to record the website in that case?

Excellent, thank you! That sounds like it would solve my problem.
If I want to record the website through which somebody entered the survey, I would place this on the first page of the survey, correct?
+31On the first page would be recommended, as if a person leaves the survey in between, at least we will be able to capture some data using partial response
Hi there, a year on, I just implemented this in my survey (thank you!) - can you tell me how I would see a report of the referring URLs?
Thanks,
Thom.
Hey
It premiers at 9AM MST Jan 12th 2024 and I believe it’s exactly what you’re looking for!
Ah thank you will take a look.
I managed to figure out a way using embedded data from the query string, but will look at this too.
