Survey Feeds – What do they do?

Posted by Filed in: How-to articles

The other week we had a customer call in and ask about survey feeds and how she could use them. I think the survey feed is one of the coolest features SurveyGizmo has to offer. I thought I’d dig a little deeper into what the survey feed is and does, so that you can all start using it!

What is a survey feed?

A survey feed is a way for you to give out a single URL or embed a single snippet of JavaScript, and then have different surveys appear at different times.

So, let’s say that you have a weekly survey that you wanted to embed into your blog, but you want the survey to be different every week. Now, if you’re not a procrastinator and you already know what surveys you want shown for the next month, you can create a survey feed that will automatically show your surveys on certain dates. You don’t have to worry about going in and manually changing the survey links or code every week.

How do I create a survey feed?

Creating a survey feed is actually super simple. All you need to do is follow these easy steps and you’ll be set to go.

Step 1: Click the Survey Feeds tab and select “Create Feed”

Step 2: Name your feed and customize your feed URL

Step 3: Select the surveys you want to show up and set the dates you want them to display

Step 4: Copy either the link or JavaScript code for your survey feed into your blog or website

That’s all there is to it! You now know how to use one of SurveyGizmo’s coolest features (in my opinion at least). If you have any questions about survey feeds or anything else, feel free to post your question to our forums!
