Hi,

I have previously made personalised links for participants where I upload an email (fake or real) to the participant grid and have their unique, pre-assigned ID number as a token.

I then see the form of the link and in excell manually add the token into the link for every person to create an individual link for everyone that records the token of the participant if they take the survey.

What I would like to know, is whether I can skip the step of adding the email addresses and unique IDs to the participant grid?

I.e., get a link that I can append unique donor IDs to without having to upload those IDs into Limesurvey before the survey goes live.

Many thanks!

If you want to control access, you will need to upload the tokens.

If you simply want to record the respondent's ID, you can prefill a question using a URL parameter - www.limesurvey.org/manual/URL_fields#Pre...using_GET_parameters

Thank you very much. This worked well for this purpose:
