Hi,
I am trying to automatically pass subject IDs from qualtrics to inquisit. That is, this survey starts in qualtrics and then automatically redirects to inquisit. I followed the instructions posted here: https://www.millisecond.com/support/docs/v5/html/howto/interopsurveys.htm. However, I am getting a random string of letters and numbers from the inquisit data, but the qualtrics subject ids seem to come out perfectly. I have attached a screen shot of the qualtrics embedded data where I am asking qualtrics to generate a random number from 1:99999 as the subjectid. However, when I download the data from inquisit, I am getting random letters and numbers as the subjectid (e.g., "R_2YDIWgiEuDWO1M8"). Below I've pasted a link to my qualtrics survey and to my inquisit survey. I'm guessing I made a small and obvious mistake that's messing everything up, but I was hoping that you could help me identify this mistake? 
Thanks!

The issue is somewhere in your Qualtrics-configuration, not Inquisit. The random string (e.g. "R_2YDIWgiEuDWO1M8") is Qualtrics' participant identifier and that is what your survey forwards to Inquisit in a URL parameter called "subjectid". It does not forward a random numerical value. I ran through your survey and this was the result:



Inquisit reads the value of that parameter and uses/records it as its subject ID as it should.

Good to know, I will contact qualtrics! Thanks!
