Tutorial: Saving to and displaying data from Store

Overview

This tutorial will demonstrate how to save participants' data to the Store and how to display stored data to participants later in the questionnaire. This is especially helpful when you want to personalise the questionnaire for each participant based on the response they have given, e.g. by asking them further questions regarding their response, or by adding personal touches such as addressing them by the name they have entered.

Save to Store: Firstly, we create a question (here we use Text Entry) and we turn on the 'Save to Store' setting which allows us to store participants' answers throughout the questionnaire.

Display a value saved in Store: We now want to show participants their response on the next page to welcome them using the name they typed in in the Text Entry component. There are two ways to retrieve fields from the Store and display their values on your questionnaire page:

  1. Directly bind a Text component to a Store field. You can find how to do this in the Binding Guide.

  2. Incorporate Store fields within a Text component. You can type in ${store:field-name} within the text to paste the value from the Store in the place of that syntax. This is the easiest way to show participants their responses. We use this option in this tutorial.
