How do I display a custom image to each member in a survey?

You can use the Embedded Content element to insert a URL into a survey and display a related image using profile variables. This lets you test custom visual elements according to certain members (for example, personalized promotional coupons, incentives, and so on).

Detailed Steps

Host your images

1. Upload your image files to an open content sharing platform or your internal image host.
2. Copy the unique URLs of each image.

Create an Excel file to define the image URLs as member data

1. In an Excel file, create one column containing with the header "memberid" and another column with the header of the new profile variable you are going to create (for example: "imageurl" or "embeddedimage").
2. Paste your image URLs in the second column, corresponding with the member ID of each user in the first column, one per line.
3. Save your file in CSV format.

Create your profile variable

1. In the Community app, click Community > Profile Variables.
2. Click + Profile Variables to create a new profile variable.
   The Variable Name should match the new header that you added to the Excel file in the previous step.
3. From the Type list, select Text.
4. Click Save.

Import your CSV file

1. From the toolbar in the upper left, click Import.
2. Choose the CSV file you have created and click Upload.
   Eligible members now have a unique image URL as their profile variable value.

Add the Embedded Content element to your survey

1. In the Surveys app, create a survey.
2. From the Survey Builder Toolbox, under Page Elements, do one of the following:
   • Drag the Embedded Content element to the Table of Contents.
   • Click the Embedded Content element.
3. Insert a reference to an image in HTML:

   <img src="[%Profile Variable Created%]"
   alt="Alternative text"
   width="900">

4. Click Add a pipe.
   
5. In the Pipe dialog, from the Sources list, select Profile Variables.
6. Search for the name of the profile variable and click OK.
