Is it possible to track a respondent across multiple surveys?

Hello,
I am curious how I would identify a respondent across multiple surveys. For instance, I distribute one survey and then when they complete that they are provided a link to another survey, but Qualtrics would record (not using PII) some value in the results that would let me know those surveys were both taken in the same session, or at least that survey was taken from the link provided in the first survey.
I hope that question makes sense, thanks for your help.

Hi,
You can use unique links to allocate everyone an ID. Then you can match this ID between each survey.
If the second survey is sent out upon completion of the first then you can add ?${e://Field/ID} to the redirect so it carries their ID across to the second survey.
Hope this helps!
