Hi!


I've been looking for this in the forums but I haven't found it. I would like to know if it's possible to set the default value of a dropdown question with the value of an attribute.

I send a survey regularly (twice a year) to a close group of participants. I've some classification questions like "city","Region", "Activity". Those fields rarely change so I would like to set the default value of each of those questions with an attribute with the same name. If there's nothing in the attribute then choose between the options of the question.

For example, the question "Province". If the participant have already answered this question last time, now it should be the default value.

Example: Last time the participant selected Option 3 Madrid ( 3 is the value of the option and Madrid is the text). This time when the participant enter the survey option 3 of the province question should selected by default, showing the text of the option (Madrid).

Can this be done in the 3.9.0+?

Thanks you so much in advance.

This plugin : gitlab.com/SondagesPro/TokenManagement/updateTokenByResponse
Was done for this. Updating token attribute by response in survey. Then at end : export your updated token with the good value to be imported next year.
