Group: Forum Members Posts: 1, Visits: 6	Hi everyone, I am running an idea generation task via openended elements. This task spans over several sessions. I'm using several values to log certain performance criteria. Session 2 shall build on the performance variables, generated in session 1, in order to utilise conditional branching, based on the performance in session 1. Now, I'm searching for a way to transfer the performance variables, generated in session 1, over to session 2. Is there a way to achieve that? I successfully extracted the relevant data using the summary data element. Does anyone know if it is possible to reimport those data files into a script? Or any other way to keep certain values and variables stored over several sessions and / or scripts? Responses are much appreciated :) Have a great day Chris Tags import sessions storage values

See the attached minimal example. Attachments experiment.iqx (930 views, 438 bytes) subject1values.txt (756 views, 44 bytes) subject2values.txt (799 views, 44 bytes)
