Gleaning survey results and sending via e-mail
Hi All,
I am a complete newby to this, so hope I am doing this right...
I want to send a short video to my delegates after the workshop and then get them to explain what actions they are going to do in a freeform box. There are clearly no right or wrong answers.
Then by pressing submit - they send me their responses. This would ideally have the format of..
1. name of delegate
2. question title and response.
I have the video in scene one - slide one. easy!
How do I create the next piece??
I would be hugely grateful if anyone can help..
I am even happy to pay someone to create the template for me!!!
Many thanks
Richard
Hi Richard!
E-mailing results was found to be unreliable and therefore is not a feature in Storyline anymore.
You could utilize a third-party survey for conveying information to a database and receiving that in a report.
Now, different survey services provide different features. Most of them, however, will enable you to receive the feedback by email, or store it in their database. What you could do is create a survey with one of these services and insert it into your course as a web object. The learner would be able to fill out the survey and submit it through the course itself and you'd receive the information using one of the previously mentioned methods.
One popular survey site is Survey Monkey. They provide both a free and "Pro" version, so you could certainly play around with it and see if it works for you.

Hey Leslie,
I love the idea of using surveys.
I am trying to create a "workbook" by using surveys throughout the lesson for learners to apply knowledge.Using forms sounds like a great way to do this.
However, I wanted to be able to compile the responses at the end of the course and send back to learners (imitating a workbook with their responses).
Would I be able to separate the web object slides with information slides, yet still maintain a single "forum" (equalling one email) for each of the learners?
What is the point of the Survey questions in Storyline if the results can't be sent to anyone? #justasking
Hi John,
We don't support emailing of any results, quiz or survey - but typically the tracking and capturing of this data is handled by an LMS and that would allow the administrator to capture the information and provide reports based on it. Since Richard asked specifically about sending the results, that's why I suspect Leslie shared some additional ideas and workarounds.

Thanks for linking the two threads John :) Always helpful for others that run across the threads.
No problem Leslie...always happy to help people find the best solution!
Hello Inga, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes. 😊
This conversation was quite a few years ago! The ability to email results and conduct surveys using a 3rd party would all be handled outside of Storyline, so I'd recommend following up with the survey provider you choose on how to collate results.
I look forward to hearing ideas from others in the community as well.
