How to set up an interactive survey

You can tailor the survey to a specific user.

Set up the text of the question using the GET-parameter

You can substitute different text to questions. It's useful to use parameters when you want to create a few surveys with the same questions that differ only in their product names. For example, in one survey you need to rate the quality of the fruit, and the quality of vegetables in the other survey.

Before publishing the survey add the string ?<parameter name 1>=<value>&<parameter name 2>=<value> to the link to the survey.

In questions these links are substituted in the {{get_<parameter name>}} format.

In this example we used parameters {{get_name1}} и {{get_name2}}.

In this case the URL should look like this:

https://yandex.com/poll/enter/survey_slug?name1=vegetables&name2=fruit

You can view the statistics for every parameter. To do this, download the report Questions in the XLS format.

Forwarding of the arbitary GET-parameter

You can add an arbitary GET-parameter to the URL. This parameter will appear in the downloaded statistics — in the column that contains parameters.

We recommend use this option in the following cases:

• You are going to distribute the survey on different resources. In this way you will understand which respondents came from what resources. For example, if you distribute the survey using the questionnaire, Telegram-channel and link on the website, we recommend to add the parameter from with email, tg and site values.

• Use an individual link to the survey for every user. To do this, create unique ID's and distribute links with these ID's adding the parameter to the URL. For example, the parameter unique_id=1234567890, where 1234567890 is the unique ID for the respondent. In this case, after completing the survey, in the Excel file will be added the column with transmitted values of the unique_id GET-parameter. By this value you can filter duplicates or stick the data together.

You need to add the parameter=value to the URl.

Links will look like this:

https://yandex.com/poll/enter/survey_slug?unique_id=1234567890

https://yandex.com/poll/enter/survey_slug?from=email

You can transmite a few values. In this case the link will look like this:

https://yandex.com/poll/enter/survey_slug?unique_id=1234567890&from=email

Transmit the answer to the question to the next question

You can transmit the answer to the question to the following questions using parameters. It helps you to get more detailed info about one of the answers. For example, in the first question you offer your client to choose their favorite name for the cafe, and in the next question you offer to rate this name on a scale.

Every question has its own ID. You can copy it. To transmit the answer to the next question, use the {{q_id}} parameter, where id is the ID of the question.
