We are conducting a pain level study where a participant needs to complete the same survey twice daily for one week. Ideally, we would like to email participants only one link for the survey duration. We would like to be able to aggregate all the data into one spreadsheet for each participant. Additionally, participants will only be enrolled with their email the day of their procedure, so a full contact list with emails cannot be obtained previously. Is this possible?
Other posts have suggested using embedded data to create a unique ID but without much detail on how to perform this, especially in the context of a continually expanding contact list.
Question
How to create a survey to be taken multiple times over the course of a week
If you are distributing a survey through the email distribution in Qualtrics, you can allow for surveys to be completed multiple times under Advanced Options and Link Type: Multiple Completes.
However, if you're trying to avoid uploading contact lists and using the email distribution functionality, then maybe the embedded data method you're considering involves passing that field as a parameter in the url? So if your survey url is https://yoursurvey.qualtrics.com, you can provide a participant with the following link instead: https://yoursurvey.qualtrics.com?id=Tymon then as long as you add 'id' to your survey flow and leave it blank as 'Value will be set from Panel or URL' then a participant can use that link as many times as necessary and each time, the 'id' field will take on the value of 'Tymon' in that example. And just change what comes after id= for each participant.
