Redirect on Finish

Following options are available to redirect:

Redirect to Home

A checkbox is available labelled "Wait for project to finish processing before redirect". If this box is checked, a submission and data object synchronization will take place before the user is redirected to the home page. If the box is not checked, the redirect happens immediately and the project submission will happen in the background.

Redirect to Project

Allows to select published project to be redirected to. Note that an additional option Include Project Properties is displayed, allowing to specify project property values.

Redirect to Url

Allows to specify to which URL the project will be redirected. Note that this can be a reference or hard coded value.

All options have Online Message on Redirect property.

Saved Answer Files

The Finish page always contains the option for the user to save their responses as an answer file for reuse later. A new copy of the same project can be populated with the answers from a saved answer file.

Answer files saved at Finish are kept permanently but can be deleted by the user or from the API.

Best Practice
Saved answer files are only useful for a user to repopulate the same version of a project when they are completing it a second time. Using saved answer files on projects that have been modified (different questions, new questions, different conditions etc) can cause unexpected results and may cause the new project to not load.
Where users' data needs to be stored and re-used later, SmartIQ offers a range of options for storage outside the SmartIQ server including the use of external datasources, connectors to storage platforms such as Salesforce or Dynamics, REST based platforms and Amazon and Azure storage.
For Prepare Form and Generate Form APIs best practice is to pass data either using individual values in the values object or supplied data in the data object.
