Pasting from clipboard | XM Community
Skip to main content

Is there any way to directly paste clipboard item in a Qualtrics survey question or one has to always upload images to Qualtrics library first and then pull it into the rich content editor?

I tried pasting image from clipboard and got the following error message (Ironically the same is allowed here as I took the screenshot of error and pasted it here).

In case anyone knows how to bypass this library hassle, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

@rochak_khandelwal Qualtrics doesn't allow pasting images from the clipboard directly into survey questions to ensure data security and efficient survey performance. It’s a on cloud platform so it doesn’t save survey in a static document where you can paste the image directly. It have to host image in the Qualtrics Graphics Library for better management and optimization of images. It also reduces the risk of potential security issues associated with pasting images directly from the clipboard.

Hey, thanks for the reply. However, I still believe that such a feature could at least be made optional. For people like me working with enormous number of images, it becomes very painful to go through the process for changing image every time.
