Hi everybody,

I've got an issue and would appreciate some advice.

I have 5 surveys which I would like to connect with End-URL (once the first is finished it automatically redirects to the second etc.), this works fine. Now I would like to use the same token throughout the entire process. The participant enters the token once at the beginning and never again until the end. Is there an option LimeSurvey attributes the answers in the subsequent questionnaires to the token introduced at the beginning? For now everytime the participants get redirected a token has to be introduced, users should not feel that these are different questionnaires. I just divided them because they were too big to fit into one.

I use Version 3.21.2


Many thanks!

The following survey should be open.
Add the {SAVEDID} of the first survey to the end-urls.
In the following surveys check for the presence of this parameter, that nobody may enter onre of these surveys without permission.

Thank you very much Joffm.

As I am new to LS I wonder on how to implement it.
The example link in the handbook for basic fields goes as follows: www.limesurvey.org/test.php?var1={SAVEDID }

What would be my var1 and where do I get the SAVEDID of the first survey?

I tried to implement "var1={SAVEDID}" at the end of the END-Urls, but the token was still asked at each of the following surveys.

Thanks again!

As I said before:
The following surveys have to be open surveys.
You capture the parameter by "Panel Integration".
manual.limesurvey.org/Panel_integration


With this end-url of the first survey
www.survey.com/survey/index.php/152753?lang=en& var1={SAVEDID}
which is translated to the link
www.survey.com/survey/index.php/152753?lang=en& var1=1234567890

you get in a this question "Q0" of type "short text" (of course this is hidden in the real survey)


Because it is an open survey you have to check, if this parameter is not empty. Otherwise you have to screenout these participants.

Joffm

To join to the next - the third - survey your end-url should use this value of Q0,
www.survey.com/survey/index.php/152754?lang=en& var1={Q0}
