Can I use a query string to automatically display a survey in a specific language?

You can modify the deploy URL for a survey to include a query string that can be used to automatically display a survey in a specific language. Before modifying the deploy URL, you will need to setup a Multilingual Survey.

To setup a query string to automatically display a survey in a specific language:

  1. Click Surveys in the main navigation menu.
  2. Click the survey title, or proceed to the Content step.
  3. Click the Settings tab.
  4. Click the Languages sub-navigation item.
  5. Take note of the Language ID (5 digit number on the right side of each non-default language ).
  6. Click the drop down arrow for the survey, and select View; or proceed to the Preview and Deploy step to access the survey URL (via Deploy Survey > Survey URL).
  7. Once the deploy URL is displayed in your web browser, append the end of the URL as follows: http://yourdomain.com/s/yoursurveyidlang=12345
    where "12345" is the Language ID
  8. Open the appended URL to confirm the survey is displayed in that language and distribute the appended URL to survey responders.
