I'm planning a project where there are two surveys. The first survey has a bunch of text questions, and in the second survey I would like to somehow piped text the responses from the first survey and use them in Descriptive text in the second survey.
Is there a way to import text responses from one survey to another?

If you are doing email distribution for these surveys, then you can create a contact list action, in which you can put these text responses in the contact list and then in second survey you can pull theses text responses again.

Hi,
I explored your suggestions, and I have few points for clarification:

  1. Email Action- In the first survey, You are saying the i have to do this from the Actions tab of the first survey? I could achieve this step through contact list triggers.

  2. In my contact list, I can now see the text responses from the first survey.

  3. I'm not able to figure out how to use these text responses from the contact list as piped text in my second survey. I would like to pull this info in a descriptive text question in the second survey (refer image below)
