Programmability in Qualtrics Surveys

[@michellezhong2625]

Hi Devan, thanks a lot for posting the tips of working on Qualtrics. I was wondering how to reflect the variables auto-calculation on real time basis. For example, if I have one table in the survey. Column A and Column B require clients to fill in numbers then Column C will do auto-calculation (e.g (A+B)/2) based on the numbers filled in column A and B? I want the client to see the real time calculation when they fill up the survey and if possible, they can overwrite the result displayed in column C if they found the result is not what they want. Thanks a lot!

Hi Michelle, Good question and i will look into it. I know there is a Constant Sum Question that does real-time adding for customers, but based on what you said you need something a bit more like a dynamic mini 3 column excel spreadsheet.

@@DevanBernardino Thanks Devan for your quick response! I really look forward to seeing your demo on how to resolve this issue. You understand exactly what I want to achieve. I have seen demo on retrieving the value from the previous block of questions and calculate the result and show in in the next block by using Pipe language but that is not what I want. I want to achieve the dynamic calculation in a kind of excel table with multiple rows. Once the client inputs the value in one row of column A and B, the result will be calculated in the same row in Column C. I want to ask a seperate question here. I noticed after exporting survey questions to word document, all interactive functions of radio buttons or checkboxes are gone. Those become bullet icons in the word. How can I maintain them as single choice or multiple choice functions in the word version? I didn't see users asked this kind of questions so I am not sure if it is impossible to achieve? Thanks a lot!

@@michellezhong2625 Hey MIchelle, I will create a demo once i figure it out. For the exporting survey question. What i personally do is Tools > Import/Export > Print Survey > Save as PDF > Convert PDF to Word. Hope that helps!

@@DevanBernardino thanks Devan! Can’t wait to see your demo :) regarding the export steps, i tried the same steps like you did but the interactive function of radio buttons and checkbox lost. Were you able to maintain those functions in your word document ?

[@DevanBernardino]

@@michellezhong2625 Hmm you are right, it didnt maintain those functions. If i find out how i will let you know. Also for the Dynamic excel spreadsheet, the only solution i found was using Javascript

Hi Devan, thanks a lot for this very helpful video! I have a question, I am trying to change the color of the survey buttons according to the type of user that enters the platform. Can you figure out how I could do it? Thank you very much in advance!

Hi Devan, I have multiple text files each representing a unique conversation between two people. Is there any way of embedding those images in the qualtrics survey dynamically? The plan is to show those conversations to a certain population to fill out a specific set of questions. For example, once I create a survey and send its link out to the audience and they click on the link, each one of them should come across the same survey questions but a different conversation at the top.

[@DevanBernardino]

You can use a combination of JavaScript and the "Embedded Data" feature in Qualtrics survey flow to create a dynamic image. To do this, you need to plan out the survey layout. Also, depending on how you distribute the survey, you can add embedded data to the survey link URL if you're sending out an anonymous link. This will enable you to display different images and direct participants to different survey paths. If you're doing a regular distribution and have embedded data on your contacts, you can also use this data to determine the images> This all comes down to survey design.

Hi Devan, Is there any way to get the Text on hover function to work on the mobile phone view as it only seems to work on the desktop when i try it.

[@SimonWiesner]

Is there a way to fix text wrapping on surveys? When I adjust the size of the browser window the text does not wrap.

Hi Devan, Thanks for the valuable content!! 1. Is there any possibility of adding a question as a form with multiple columns? So respondents can enter data quickly. 2. Can we also add an option to upload a file with each choice entered in the form For example; Year 2021 2022 Revenue XXXXXX XXXXXX file upload Expenses XXXXXX XXXXXX file upload

Hi Devan, Is there a way to use API to automatically reset a survey quota at the first of every month?

Hi Devan, i would like to add an explanation of a word just like you did on the 'myself'. I dont know anything about programming tho. Can i just copy your CSS Editor?

[@DevanBernardino]

Hi Leon, That is correct you can just copy the code in the CSS Editor.

@@DevanBernardino how can I crack the certification exam like you

[@DevanBernardino]

@@Manibrights Hi Mani, the best way to learn is by doing projects. I work for a company that is an accredited Qualtrics Partner, so I do many implementations for a lot of companies across all industries. That helped me with the certifications. Also, there is free training called XM Basecamp that teaches the platform.

Hey mate I've added you on LinkedIn. I wanted to know how to create a slide show with text on the slides, while likert scales right below each text. I found JS codes online but they don't change anything when I add the codes :/. Tips?

[@DevanBernardino]

Hi Khai, Thanks for adding me on LinkedIn. I don’t understand what you are asking for or I might be misreading your request. For "creating a slideshow with text on the slides, while Likert scales right below each text," are you talking about creating in a PowerPoint slide? Also for the JS codes online you found, what specifically are you trying to change?
