What are dynamic values?

"Data Placeholders", also known as "Merge Tags", or "Piped in data", are strings of text that will be dynamically replaced with the corresponding data.

You can use dynamic values for fields uploaded into CustomerGauge as part of a survey invitation record.


For example, if you have the NPS question "How likely are you to recommend [[segment_a]] to your friends and family?", it could be displayed as "How likely are you to recommend SimpleWays to your friends and family?".


Good to know

Square brackets and Curly brackets

Dynamic placeholders for data provided on the survey record, use square brackets ( "[[]]" ) in surveys, while data coming from the survey, such as the selected NPS Score, use curly brackets ( "{{}}" ).


Survey Preview

Note that when previewing your survey, there is no actual survey record linked to the preview.

Dynamic Survey Record data placeholders can therefor show up as blank when previewing your survey.


Available in these places

You can use dynamic placeholders in the following places in the survey:

  • Question titles / survey widget headings
  • HTML box
