Publishing Your Link Channel

Assign a Flow to Your Channel

Before the deployment, you must link your channel to the correct survey or questionnaire:

  • Navigate to your listing of channels page.
  • Locate your Link Channel from the list.
  • Click the option to assign a flow directly from the channel row. This ensures that when customers click your link, they are directed to the correct feedback experience.

Once your flow is assigned, you click the deploy button. Here is how to use each feature on this page:

Sharing Your Survey Link

At the top of the interface, you will find your primary, direct survey URL.

  • Copy to Clipboard: Click the Copy icon next to the URL field to instantly copy the full link. You can then paste this link into emails, SMS messages, website buttons, or social media posts to start gathering insights immediately.

Link Shortening

If your full survey link is too long or you need a cleaner URL for channels with character limits (like SMS), you can use the built-in URL shortener.

  • Click the Generate Short Link button to create a compact, user-friendly version of your feedback URL.

QR Code Distribution

For offline feedback collection—such as on printed receipts, menus, store signage, or product packaging—you can use the automatically generated QR code.

  • Download QR Code: Click the Download QR Code button to save the QR code image directly to your device. Respondents can simply scan this code with their smartphone cameras to launch your survey instantly.

Advanced Settings

If you need to configure deep links, pass metadata/parameters through the URL, or adjust specific technical behaviors for your link, click on the Advanced Settings dropdown menu to expand additional customization options.

Previewing and Saving

  • Preview in New Tab: Before sending your link out to the world, use the Preview in New Tab button at the bottom of the screen to test the live user experience of your survey.
  • Confirming: Once you are satisfied and ready, click Ok to finalize and save your publishing configurations.
