Pre-selected answers from a previous survey round
Hello. I want to conduct annual surveys with always the same participants. I want to have the answers to the questions already filled out with the answers that were given by the individual respondents in the last survey round. Is there a way to do this? If yes, how?

You could use the retake survey option:

Just make sure you download the data from the previous survey so you can compare and track changes.

Yes, use a contact trigger to save the answers as embedded fields in your contact list. Then use those embedded fields to pre-populate the answers to the survey.
Thanks! I will try those options and see which is the most useful. But seems like they both serve the point.

https://www.qualtrics.com/community/discussion/comment/38232#Comment_38232Yes, it will still work. Qualtrics had said that triggers were going away and would be replaced by actions, but they've put that on hold indefinitely due to a number of issues using actions to update contact lists.
