Could someone guide some light.

Is the hidden question considered embedded data.

The reason Im asking is that does the below code line helps to set the hidden question answer.

 

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData

Hi Praveen, it all depends on your requirement. Hidden question can be embedded. For e.g. if you are asking age question with rang 1 to 99 amd client is askin you to create hidden variable to capture age group. Then you can use embedded data as hidden question which will capture the value of respondent’s response. Hidden question can be your normal survey vairable or embedded data anything.

 

It would be good if you would share actually requirement, then I think I will be able to give you proper solution on that.

Hi Praveen, If you want to save the runtime value with help on JS then you can use “Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData”, if you are using simple layout the you can use “ualtrics.SurveyEngine.setJSEmbeddedData” instead.

@praveengeorgeix Unfortunately No!

The hidden question isn’t considered while you try to punch the embedded data, unless you show it on page it would not run.

Use a timing question in between and add your JS there. 

Hope it helps!
