Is there a way to flag responses in Qualtrics if the survey is started before a specific time (e.g., 9:15 AM)?

I explored using Start Date and survey flow, but time-based comparisons seem limited. Has anyone implemented this either within the survey or via dashboards/workflows?

Hi,

Piping in ${date://OtherDate/H/+0%20hour}${date://OtherDate/mm/+0%20hour} in a ED field at the start of the survey flow will give you the time in 24-hour format HHMM. You can use it as a simple number value to create time segments.

In dahboards, you can use this on any date field.
