# Qualtrics Setup Guide

## This article will show you how to configure your Qualtrics survey to pass respondent IDs using variables and properly redirect respondents upon survey completion, termination, and quota fulfillment.

### Step 1: Pass respondent IDs into your survey (0:15 of video)

- Navigate to **Survey Flow** in the upper left.
- Select **Add a New Element \> Embedded Data**.
- Type **aid** (this will store respondent IDs).
- Drag this Embedded Data field to the top of your Survey Flow to ensure IDs are captured.
- Select **Add a New Element \> Embedded Data**.
- Type **gc** and set its value to **1** (this helps track completed responses in Qualtrics).

### Step 2: Add a completion URL (0:37 of video)

Redirect respondents who complete your survey successfully.

- In **Survey Flow**, select **Add a New Element \> End of Survey**.
- Click **Customize \> Override Survey Options \> Redirect to a URL**.
- Paste in your **Completion URL** (provided on your project-specific submission page).
- Click **OK**.

### Step 3: Add a termination URL (1:10 of video)

Redirect respondents who are disqualified based on screening criteria.

- Below a question block, select **Add Below \> Branch**.
- Set a condition for a response-based screen-out (e.g., selecting “Extremely Unlikely”).
- Click **OK** to confirm the condition.
- **Add a New Element \> End of Survey**
- Click **Customize \> Override Survey Options \> Redirect to a URL**.
- Paste in **https://r.centiment.co/r/client/terminate?aid=${e://Field/aid}**
- Click **OK \> Apply**

To ensure respondents are screened out as early as possible, it’s recommended to apply screen-out logic at the question level, outside of the Survey Flow

### Step 4: Add an over-quota URL (1:54 of video)

Redirect respondents when a quota has been filled.

- Navigate to **Quotas** in the left panel.
- Under your quota condition, select **Quota Options \> Redirect to a URL**.
- Paste in **https://r.centiment.co/r/client/over-quota?aid=${e://Field/aid}**
- Click **Publish** to finalize your survey setup.
