Hi,

I have a quick question about the Qualtrics platform. We’ve set up a study with two surveys:

  1. Survey 1 collects consent and participant information.
  2. Survey 2 contains the actual survey items for the study.

Participants are only provided the link to Survey 1. At the end of Survey 1, they are automatically redirected to Survey 2 to complete the measures. In theory, no participant should access Survey 2 directly without first completing Survey 1.

However, in our Survey 2 database, we’ve noticed some entries where participants don’t have embedded data from Survey 1, which suggests their consent data wasn’t captured or passed to Survey 2.

Could you help us understand why this might be happening and suggest any potential solutions?

Thank you!

Hi ​@Mannila ,

Assuming you are passing the info from survey 1 to survey 2 in url arguments here.

Is there logic in survey 1 that might have participants skip the questions used to fill the EDs?

Are those questions mandatory?

Are you trying to pass arguments containing special characters or spaces? If so, it might explain why participants’ ED are filled and not others. If so, you should urlencode the values you’re passing.

Please check this. You have set the embedded data to capture the required information.
