Selecting your audience

If you're planning to use your own respondents, the first thing you need to do is on the 'Configure targeting' page, where you need to click on 'I have my own', shown below:

Using a general link vs using a customised link
If you're going to be using a general link, that's very simple! Just use the shareable link provided here:If you need to track your respondents (to see which respondents have given what responses, to ensure that no one has answered the survey twice, etc), you should send each respondent a customised link.
Assign each user a unique id. Unique ids can have only letters, numbers, and the symbols "-" and "_". Add ?id= followed by the unique id to the end of the link before sharing with each user.
For example, if the general link is as follows:
https://survey.getvase.com/p/xs-cc79beec-9ed9-4ab9-baf5-3af04f9c80d3
And if you've given your respondent an id of "1234", then when inviting a user with a unique id of 1234, you would share the link below:
https://survey.getvase.com/p/xs-cc79beec-9ed9-4ab9-baf5-3af04f9c80d3?id=1234 -
Identifying which response belongs to which respondent ID
Download your raw data using the steps shown here. Refer to column A to find the response ID of each respondent.
The response IDs will all follow this format:
xrp-${eightDigitHash}-${appendedID}
So if you're looking for the user with the unique ID of "1234", you need to look for:
xrp-<8 digit hash unique to your survey>-1234
