Hello everyone, 


I'm trying to think how this might be possible. I want to send each constitutent a unique link to a survey (hosted externally) so I can track who completed said survey. 


Option 1 would be to add interest groups to the survey link, meaning I could create a group of people who clicked the links, but it won't further separate out those who completed the survey.


Option 2 would be (and here I'm guessing wildly) to add the unique link to the constituent record as some sort of data field and then add that data field (from their constituent record) to the email. It would be an ugly link but in theory it should tell me who clicked the link and went on to do the survey. 


Does anyone have any experience with something like this?

    Is the externally hosted survey at 3rd party provider or yours?


    If the external survey can take a URL parameter and store it with survey submission, you can append constituent id to the survey URL like that http://<survey url>/?cons=[[S1:cons_id]] - Then from the survey reports, you can know who from LO constituents has completed the survey.


    I think it will depend on what the external survey can provide you to make cross linking between it and the email you are sending from LO.
