Link panel to form |

|
FeedbackServer let us link any of our panel to any of our forms. Once linked to a survey the panel attributes will be made available as a question that you can move anywhere inside the form.
To link a panel to a survey all we have to do is choose the insert question on our survey and from the copy question pane choose link to panel and choose the panel we want to link to the survey.
Linked panels can be used in several scenarios :
- Panel Auto Filling
Using panel auto filling we can present the respondent of the survey with a blank fields representing the panel attributes. Once the respondent has finished the survey all connected panels will automatically create a new panelist and assign the respondent's value to it.
This is very practical if you want to create a new panel but don't want to enter all the data yourself so you can just send out a simple survey in order to fill your panel automatically with panelists.
In the case of existing data like in the Dynamics CRM Lead Connector we can easily provide a simple form for our web users to fill and they will instantly be added to our internal CRM systems as leads.
Note that only panel connector which support the insertion of new panelists are able to support this feature.
- Panel Updating
Using panel updating along with the panelist mapping features we can show the current logged in panelist with the data that we have about him in our panel. Once the respondent has finished the survey all data related to the panel will automatically updated inside the panel.
Note that only panel connector which support the update of panelists are able to support this feature.
- Panel Information
As we can setup our panel attributes to have different states depending on the context we could show any or all attributes as read only to the user for information purposes.
We also can configure each attribute behavior from the panel attributes to make a field read only, visible, updatable based on the context panel filling or panel updating.
