Survey Pass known information about a respondent into an embedded survey
URL Parameters incorporate known information about a respondent into the analytics dashboard. URL Parameters can include:
- Respondent email address
- Customer ID
- Name
- Demographics information such as gender, age, etc.
- Traffic source the respondent has arrived from
- Any other known information such as respondent group, email list and CRM database information
To make this information available in a Segmanta survey that is embedded into your website using a Segmanta embed code or Segmanta Dynamic Embed mechanism, you will need to pass parameters that will be associated with the user’s responses:
To pass this information, you should expose a global variable called:
SEGMANTA__USER_METADATA
For example, including the following <script> tag will associate all responses with a Travel category on your website:
<script>
window.SEGMANTA__USER_METADATA = {
category: "travel"
}
</script>
You can pass any keys inside SEGMANTA__USER_METADATA, except for a few keys which are reserved: host, widget, lang and embed_type.
IMPORTANT:
- URL Parameters are limited to 100 per survey, parameters over 100 will not be saved
Looking to pass custom fields into a survey that is not embedded into a website? You can also pass parameters via your survey url or, if you are ready, learn how to to analyze results based off information passed as URL Parameters.
