Passing in Respondent Criteria

Overview

In the interest of reducing respondent fatigue and improving the respondent experience, you may bypass the respondent screener in PureSpectrum by passing in the respondent's qualification/condition codes in the query string parameters.  You must use the PureSpectrum values for these qualification codes and condition codes.

For singlepunch questions like gender, you should pass in a single value e.g. &211=111.  For questions that are multipunch, you may pass in multiple, comma separated values e.g. &1031=111,112.

Usage

In the example where you are sending a white(214|111) male(211|111) respondent, 34 years old(212|34) earning 50,000 household income(214|50000), with both a dog and a cat(1031|111,112), your entry link would be:

Considerations

Please note that we will ignore qualification codes with condition code=null, and any additional condition codes beyond the first condition code for singlepunch questions.

We may ask these demographic questions at any time to verify the accuracy of the answers passed in.

In the event that any qualification codes are missing, those questions will be asked of the respondent before qualifying them for the survey.
