How can I have participants take the same survey everyday for a week + appear on the same datatable | XM Community
Skip to main content
Hi all,



I am planning to conduct a daily diary survey where participants are asked to complete the same survey multiple times a week. I wanted to know if there was a way to 1) send participants a unique link to complete the survey, 2) allow them to complete the survey multiple times with the same link, and 3) how to compile all the data into one datatable.



We plan to use a third-party webiste to deliver these surveys via text, and we will be scheduling the time each participant receives the text at the begining of the week. I also wanted to ask if it was possible to send each participant the same personalized link everyday, or would we need to create a unique link for that participant for each day.



Thank you!
You have to use retake link for this purpose to get data stored in one row for one respondent, read below for how to make retake link and also about trigger emils

A retake link will write over the old responses with the new ones. So you're going to want to try one of two different methods, as it relates to your second question.



Option 1: New links every time for each person. This would involve creating new personalized links for each person each day.



Option 2: Use the anonymous link, but for each person append a URL query string to identify that individual. This will allow you to have one link for each person that they can use every single day. You can read more about that here:

So your URL would look something like this:
