Piped Text

Carry over a response or written text from a previous question into the text of another question. Data can also be piped from panel data, embedded data, and scoring information.

Editing a Question

Question Text

When editing the text of a question, you can pipe in text by clicking the text itself then selecting the "Piped Text" tab that appears above the text editing window

Choice Text

When editing the text of an answer choice, you can pipe in text by clicking the text itself then selecting the "Piped Text" option from the drop-down menu

Survey Mailer

Piped text can be entered into the message sent to respondents

Embedded Data

Embedded data refers to variables from your panel that are not related to name and address information, as well as custom variables saved during the survey.

Setting Embedded Data

In order to set embedded data, refer to the Survey Flow tool. This will save embedded data into your data report.

• From Edit Survey, go to Survey Flow
• Click “Add below”
• Click “Embedded Data”
• In "Enter Embedded Data Field Here":

embedded data from previous questions

If you are entering a new embedded variable saved from previous questions, enter a new name for the embedded data. You must have previously gathered the embedded data value code by using piped text. Your question code generally has this format: ${q://QID18/ChoiceGroup/AllChoicesTextEntry}.

embedded variable from the URL

If you are entering the embedded variable from the URL, enter the name exactly as it appears in the URL.

• e.g., in http://umich.qualtrics.com/SE?SID=SV_ekyxaaB4ERtSBAo&SVID=Prod&UID=LCTRIAL123 the variable name is UID.

The value will be set from the URL.

embedded variable from a panel

If you are entering the embedded variable from a previously uploaded panel, enter the name exactly as it appears in the panel. The value will be set from the panel.

static values

If you would like to create a static value, create a name for your embedded variable and enter the value to the right.

Note that embedded data field names are case-sensitive!!

View Code for Embedded Data

In order to view how Qualtrics codes your embedded data, follow the directions on how to use piped text. You can view this code in a question text to cut and paste elsewhere.

Embedded variables generally have this format: ${e://Field/variablename}
