Notifications & data

=Introduction=

If you would like to save response-related details into the responses tables, access this panel. You can save the referrer URL, IP address, timings, etc. that can help you produce more in-depth analyses. Moreover, LimeSurvey allows you to use the tracking ID from Google Analytics.

To access this panel, click on the corresponding survey setting tab:



=Data management panel=

The following options are available:



Date stamp
Turn it on if you would like to see the time when the answers were submitted.

Save IP address
If enabled, the IP address of the survey respondent will be stored together with his or her answers.

Save referrer URL
If turned yes, the referrer URL will be stored together with the answers.

Save timings
If enabled, the time spent on each page of the survey by each survey participant is recorded.

Enable assessment mode
You can enable/disable assessments for this survey with this setting.

Participant may save and resume later
This setting allows a participant to save his responses and resume to answer the survey at a later time. Please note that this makes most sense with open surveys or surveys with anonymized answer. If you are using tokens and the survey is not anonymous, in most cases it is better to activate Token-based response persistence.

Basic and detailed admin notifications email
These two fields allow you to send notifications or survey responses to any email addresses once the survey is submitted. You can edit the templates for these emails from the Email templates menu. Multiple recipients can be set by separating the entries with a semicolon - e.g., "yourname@test.com; myname@test.com;hisname@test.com" or (if using placeholders) "yourname@test.com;{QUESTION.shown};{TOKEN:EMAIL}".

Google Analytics settings
If you would like to get further details about the survey web traffic, use Google Analytics. Three options are available:
 * None: Google Analytics will not be used;
 * Use settings below: if chosen, the survey owner can type in his or her Google Analytics Tracking ID to be stored only with the respective survey. You also have the possibility to choose one of the three Google Analytics styles:
 * Do not use Google Analytics - so {GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_JAVASCRIPT} is an empty string;
 * Default Google Analytics - {GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_JAVASCRIPT} uses the standard Google Analytics code, inserting the proper Google Analytics Key;
 * SurveyName-[SID]/GroupName - {GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_JAVASCRIPT} contains customized Google Analytics code to log the URL as {SURVEYNAME}-[{SID}]/{GROUPNAME}. This can be helpful if you want to analyze navigation paths through your survey, time spent per page, and drop-off rates per page.
 * Use global settings: If picked up, the survey will use the same Google Analytics Tracking ID as the one mentioned in the global settings and then you choose the desired Google Analytics style.
