Publish web survey

To publish a web survey, you start by clicking on in the list of surveys in the Publish survey page. Under Publish web survey you see three tabs, under which you can produce web links of various kinds. The three sub menus have in common that you shall start by picking a survey from a drop-down menu.

To see the survey as the customer sees it, you can click on providing the same result as when you click on in the list of surveys in the start view. Have in mind that if you answer the questions in the survey, your answers will be registered in statistics.

The Web link for ACE Chat tab

Under Web link for ACE Chat you rapidly create custom html links you can use to offer chatting customers to participate in a survey.

In ACE Chat there are text strings that can be replaced by a specific value when used in a chat session. One example is the %agent text string. When an automatics standard phrase such as You are being serviced by %agent is seen by the customer, he sees %agent replaced by the name of the agent servicing the chat.

The links created by ACE Survey include three text strings, which all can be given dynamic values by ACE Chat when the web link is sent in a chat entry to the customer:

%cgUsername

The agent’s username in ACE

%errand

The task type connected to the contact

%contactId

Contact identity for the chat session

These text strings make it possible to connect the survey answer to the current chat and to the agent having chatted with the customer. Since the survey answer can be connected to a specific agent you can, in these surveys, create questions that each respective agent can study in ACE Agent.

When you, in Web link for ACE Chat have selected a survey in the drop-down menu, a link is automatically created that you can use as a chat ending, for example paste as a standard phrase in ACE Admin’s Chat entrances window.

Before you enter the link as an ending phrase in ACE Chat you may want to arrange for the customer not having to see a long link as in the example above, but just see a couple of underlined words, such as Click here. To achieve this, in ACE Chat you enter the link xxx above, framed by the standard syntax for HTML links

<a href="xxx">Click here</a>

In ACE Chat, all links beginning with http://, https://, or www. Are converted into HTML links, and they are automatically opened in new web windows. Pure html code pasted into the chats is however seen as it is by the customer, meaning that nothing is converted or opened automatically. If the link with Click here is to be opened in a separate window, you must specify this, with target="_blank", like this:

<a href="xxx" target="_blank">Click here</a>

The Link lab tab

Under Link lab you can test various combinations of parameters and experimat to achieve a practicable link template for your web surveys.

Then you can, for example, fill in statistical data below, test the survey by answering the questions and then check that you data in each respective field below can be seen in the corresponding columns in the Data table under Surveys | Analyse.
