In my Survey I want to have the name of the survey into an embedded data field. I know this can be done for the SurveyID, but what string do I need to have the SurveyName into an embedded data field?

Thank you all for your response. A pitty this can't be done, so now I have to key in the project name twice: in the projectname itself AND in an embedded data field.

I don't think we have any in-built SurveyName embedded data in place. However, I believe you will have to manually capture/assign the survey name to an embedded data.

The only way to automatically get the survey name is to do an API call.

@Nico_Leussink - Both the people who responded before me are incredibly smart, so I assume I am interpreting your question wrong. However, if I am not misunderstanding you question, you can simple create an embedded data field in the survey flow and populate it with a static value (i.e. your survey name). ! Best practice would be to include this above the first block of questions in order to ensure it will be populated for all responses.
