Global Variables Guide

Survey Shaper automatically creates global (or system) variables across all surveys. These global variables can be used in skips, filters, conditional text, and/or action commands.

How Do I Use Them?

For skips and filters, some of the more frequently used global variables are listed in the Filter Builder. Simply drag and drop the required variable from the left panel of the filter builder to the defined filters panel on the right, and specify the desired value(s).
