How do I set up Voxpopme in a power survey? – Alida Help Center

Voxpopme is a third-party tool that lets respondents record a video. This article provides step-by-step instructions on how to integrate a Voxpopme widget into a study.

Tip: Voxpopme functionality is now available through a new question type, the Video Feedback question, in surveys. With the Video Feedback question, all of the functionality you need to create the question, collect video responses, and analyze data is built into the application. There is no need for special templates or configuration. The Video Feedback question is available for an additional cost. For more information, please refer to the Video Feedback documentation and speak to your Customer Success Manager.

Note: You must have purchased Voxpopme and have a project set up on that platform before doing the steps below.

Example

You want members to record a video about their thoughts on a certain product.

2. Find and vopy the Voxpopme project ID from your Voxpopme portal project summary page.
3. This can be found on the Voxpopme project summary page, in the project link after "/record/":
  For example: https://www.voxpopme.com/record/b1e1d0c3c6929f0dd8eee8994c6e0b75.
4. Copy the bolded part of the link.
Set up the Voxpopme template.

2. Add the Voxpopme project ID between the double quotation marks.
```
 string project_id = "b1e1d0c3c6929f0dd8eee8994c6e0b75";
```
3. If you want to localize the Voxpopme widget to languages other than English, find one of the supported languages from the Voxpopme website (click here) and add the language code between the double quotation marks like below.
```
string language = "de_DE";
```
4. If you want to capture audio only, change false in the code to true.
```
bool audio_only = "true";
```
  Note: The audio-only option only works on desktop so you must set your study mode to Computer only.
If you want to disallow respondents to replay and re-record, change false in the code to true.
```
bool disallow_replay = "true";
```
If you want to append data to be captured within Voxpopme project, add your question names as answer options in VPM_APPEND_VARS hidden question.
Notes:
- If the question you want to append is from another study, add it first as reference in your Voxpopme study.
- Open End and Numeric questions can be passed over with a limitation that the data value cannot exceed 50 characters. Data value will be truncated if it goes over 50 characters.
- Single Choice questions including recodes can be passed over and the data will be captured by its precode.
- Any other question types are not allowed (for example, Multi Choice, Single/Multi Choice Grids, Allocation, Rank, and so on).
- PanelistIdQuestion is there by default. Do not remove.
Update the instruction text on VPM_PAGE which will appear above the Voxpopme widget.
Note: Do not change anything on VPM_RESPONSE question.
