Adding Confirmation Emails

Have you ever wanted REDCap to automatically send a confirmation email whenever a respondent completes your survey?

The use of a confirmation email is a great way for you to thank the respondent. It is also a useful way to send respondents a copy of any pertinent information related to the survey they just completed.

You can find the confirmation settings on the Survey Settings page for a given survey in the Online Designer.

The email confirmation setting allows you the option of adding one attachment to the email. You can also use piping in the email’s subject line and in the message itself to help personalize the email.
