Loop & Merge | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hello -
I'm attempting to use the Loop & Merge feature in my survey. The use case is the user needing to enter (potentially) several iterations of the same form. The last question in my survey is "Do you have another item to submit?" which should trigger the survey to loop through the questions again. I don't understand how to set this up in this way using Loop & Merge. Has anyone else run into this scenario and have advice?
Thanks!

jspach07 Do you want to use "Loop and Merge" or do you want the user to complete the survey another time if choosing "Yes?" Loop and Merge will essentially duplicate question(s) and each loop will add the answers into additional columns. If you want them to retake the entire survey if they click "yes" so that all question responses remain the same columns, then you will want to create branch logic at the end that will redirect them to the start of the survey if they click "yes."

We had the same use-case the below youtube video helped us with configuration.
Repeat a block of questions based on respondent choice in Qualtrics - Qualtrics Demo by Ron Dev - YouTube
Hope it helps!

This second part is precisely what I’m looking for - I need the respondents to retake the entire survey so the responses remain in the same columns upon export of data.  I can see how to use branch logic to end the survey, but how is that used in order to restart the survey?  

 

Thanks!
