I have the requirement to randomly redirect to a new page out of 4 links at the end of surveys. Since end of survey block do not have option to add javascript code, I put the redirection code in the previous block as below -

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function()
{
const chat_version = ["https://link1.com", "https://link1.com", "https://link1.com","https://link1.com","https://link1.com"];
setTimeout(function () {
window.location.href = chat_version[url_choice];},15000)
});
The above code sometimes work and sometimes doesn't redirect at the end of survey. I am unable to figure out the reason behind this. It's quite random and I cannot find the reason behind this.

Why dont you try to store each of these values in an embedded field.

Example : Link = Link1
Link = Link 2

Store these ED fields in a randomizer within the survey flow at the end of the survey and use the ED value within the End of survey to redirect to a random link

Thanks for the answer. I have to do this programmatically since I get the url_choice variable from my backend server. And I can redirect only based on that. I can't put them in the ranodmizer for this reason.
Although I cannot use radomizer, your answer helped me solved the issue. I didn't knew there is something like randomizer and there were two randomizer element already present in the End of Survey tag somehow and one of them was causing unintended redirect.
