How not to record participants' responses to questions

Hi MaVi ,
Not sure if this would work but I would test out enabling the Do Not Record Response option in the custom EOS in the Survey Flow.

Hi Matthew,
Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, by checking that option, the email won't be triggered because the email addresses won't be recorded. Also, if I subsequently un-check that option, the responses to surveys that were previously not recorded will appear.
Thanks anyways for your suggestion!

I haven't tried it, but instead of using a Qualtrics question to ask for email, you could try creating your own html input then save it to an embedded data field using JS. Then pipe the embedded data field into the email trigger. As long as you don't define the embedded data field in the survey flow it won't be recorded. The question is whether it exists long enough to be piped into the trigger.

I wonder if this question was ever answered.  I have the same problem.  I would like to ask participants to enter a date, but I want the date to not be recorded on the output file, but I would still like to use the date.

I was thinking of trying to use embedded data to overwrite the variable at the end of the survey, once it has been used.  But I have not yet done so and hoping more experienced people will offer advice.

I can confirm this works.  

I found that this solution works.  You can collect the data and use it, and then overwrite it with embedded data at the end of the survey.  Almost a miracle.
