IMPORTANT: Surveys is a "legacy" module that is no longer offered but which is currently in the Maintenance stage of the Product Life Cycle.
If your organization surveys your subscribers, Higher Logic Thrive Marketing Professional gives you the ability to write survey information and results to your iMIS database via the Survey writeback.
Writeback setup
In order to use this writeback, you have to:
- create a survey,
- create a mailing that contains a link to the survey, and
- associate the mailing to an iMIS target group.
When these things are complete, you can write your survey results to your iMIS database.
The writeback has information on whether or not the survey was taken and if there is any survey data.
Writeback schedule
The writeback can be executed on-demand or it can be scheduled for individual mailings when a survey is used.
User-defined table
To ensure that this writeback will work as intended:
- create a user-defined table,
- name that table INFORMZ_SURVEYS, and
- name the columns (fields) and data types exactly as shown below.
NOTE: If the names are not identical, the writeback will not work.
Below is the table structure for the INFORMZ_SURVEYS table.
See User-Defined Tables to learn the initial steps to create a user-defined table.
