I'm trying to import a few thousand questions into Qualtrics using the Advanced Formatting option detailed here https://www.qualtrics.com/support/survey-platform/survey-module/survey-tools/import-and-export-surveys/
I would like to be able to bring in an image URL with each question block and have the link display as a graphic. The documentation mentions there is a [[Text]] or [[DB]] – Text/Graphic (Descriptive Block)
function but I can't figure out how to call it properly.
I have tried the following : (\n
means new line below and there are no spaces)
[[Question:Graphic]] \n https://cdn.britannica.com/s:300x300/55/174255-004-9A4971E9.jpg
where I get a "Error Calling Service" message and
[[Question:DB]] \n https://cdn.britannica.com/s:300x300/55/174255-004-9A4971E9.jpg
and
[[Question:DB:Graphic]] \n https://cdn.britannica.com/s:300x300/55/174255-004-9A4971E9.jpg
However, it is only importing as a text question and not showing the URL as a graphic. The Graphic
option for question type is not highlighted after importing (none of the circles are selected till I click something).
Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!
Import doesn't import images. If you want to import the images into your Qualtrics library, you would have to import them separately by going to Library/Graphics.
Whether you import them into Qualtrics or not, you need to include the html to display the image in your question. For example:
[[Question:DB]]
[[ID:Q1]]
