How do I create a unique link for each distribution method?


I'd like to create 5 unique links that all point to the same survey with a data field indicating which link the respondent used. By using a unique link with each distribution method (cards, flyers, email, facebook/Google ads), I'll be able to know how well each method worked. Thanks.

You can generate unique links from distribution tab and then follow this example and change the source value in the url

Thanks. That seems like it should have worked, but it's not working. I precisely followed the instructions on these two pages:
Embedded Data - Qualtrics SupportPassing Information via Query Strings - Qualtrics SupportThe only thing I did differently from the example was instead of appending "?Source=Facebook" to the end of the url, I used "?x=1" I also tried "?x=a" because all of the examples used strings with letters only. In both cases, the URL took me to the survey, I entered bunk data and completed the survey. Downloaded the data. Saw the field "x" in the data file. But that field was always blank. No "1" and no "a". Any thoughts?
Thanks.
