My survey respondents in survey 1 will need to do a follow up survey 5 months after they have finished the first one. I tried to set up email trigger with the link of survey 2 in it, but there is no feature allows me to send the trigger out automatically according to my timeframe. And as some embedded data from survey 1 need to be transferred to the survey two, sending a separate follow up invitation to the respondents won't help me because I need the compare the survey 1 & 2 responses of the same respondents. Anyone who has this experience before? Your advice will be highly appreciated!

To automate this I think you an do it like this:1. Create a Contact List Trigger to save the embedded data that needs to be passed from Survey1 to Survey2 as recipient embedded data.2. Create an action to run a web service that uses the Qualtrics API to create a survey distribution for Survey2 that will send an invitation in 5 months. (use ${date://OtherDate/c/+5%20month} to pipe five months from today as the sendDate).

@AvisTam - You can still use a follow up email with a separate survey link to survey 2 and compare the data from survey 1. What you need to do is create a contact list trigger and attach the data you need. Essentially you are making a mailing list with the data you need as embedded data. You can then reference this list to send a scheduled survey to survey 2 in 5 months. Note - I have never set up a distribution using a list that was being updated, but I imagine you can do so without it excluding people added after the time that the distribution was programmed because it sends the whole list as default... just can't confirm.
