import attributes was created by yohay
Hi,
I need the same attributes for many different surveys (and participants) and want to set them only once:
1. Can I use (copy) attributes from cpdb to a survey?
2. Is it possible to import attributes from a file?

if those 2 above not possible is the only way not to set them allover every time is to copy the entire survey?

Many thanks
Yohay

Hi, yohay,

I do not know what you tried so far, but:
when you add a participant from the CPDB to a survey you are asked which attributes to map.

Many thanks.
Unfortunately that doesnt the scenario I need.
I need to use the same attributes for different respondents and for different surveys.
I am looking for a way to store a list of attributes and use it instead of creating it all over again every time.

Thanks
