When you are sending a test via our share link, all the responses and results we are collecting are anonymous.
Here at Useberry, a unique respondent is called a Session.
The only things you know about a session are the following:
Date: The date that the respondent took the test.
Country: The country of the respondent.
Device: The device of the respondent.
Name: A unique name of the respondent (you can change it anytime to a more friendly name).
There are cases that you want to track a specific tester or a specific group of testers and create a segment for them or identify them on your results.
This can be done by adding Custom Variables on the share link.
Custom Variables are a set of keys-values that can help you identify those sessions on your results and filter them out via our filters or even create a segment for them.
e.g. You want to collect results from a specific Slack group called UXDesigners
Your custom variables could be
key=group
value=slack
and
key=name
value=UXDesigners
Your final url looks like this:
https://app.useberry.com/t/xxxx/?group=slack&name=UXDesigners
Tip: You can add as many custom variables as you want.
The result of the specific session will look like this:
You can filter out the results and create a segment for them by adding a filter.
Another (more advanced) example.
You want to send a Useberry link on your mailing list and you want to know who responded and what.
Create a campaign on your favorite email marketing tool and create a dynamic template by adding a custom variable at the end of the Useberry link.
Assume you want to identify the responses by their email, you can add on your email template https://app.useberry.com/t/xxxx/?email={dynamic variable}
The recipient with the email address: bill@useberry.com will receive
https://app.useberry.com/t/xxxx/?email=bill@useberry.com
The recipient with the email address: jenny@useberry.com will receive
https://app.useberry.com/t/xxxx/?email=jenny@useberry.com
e.t.c.
