Platform surveys

Host a survey on Confetti and share a direct link with respondents.

Platform surveys let respondents fill out your survey on a Confetti-hosted page — no embed code or authorised domains required. Share a link by email, chat, or QR code when you do not need the widget on your own site.

  1. Publish your survey (see Publishing a survey).
  2. Open the survey and go to the Settings tab.
  3. Under Platform, turn on Expose URL.

Platform toggle in survey settings

The shareable link appears under the toggle:

https://confetti.gov.sg/cfti/<surveyId>

The survey must stay published while the platform link is in use. An unpublished survey will not accept submissions at this URL.

How respondents see your survey

Anyone with the link can open the Confetti-hosted page, answer the questions, and submit.

Respondent view of a platform survey

After submitting, respondents see your confirmation message, a response ID, and an option to submit another response.

Track campaigns with query parameters

Append query parameters to the link to record campaign or channel context on each response. Values are saved in the response metadata.

For example:

https://confetti.gov.sg/cfti/<surveyId>?source=email&campaign=q3

stores source and campaign on every response submitted through that link.

  • Repeated parameters (?tag=a&tag=b) are stored as a JSON array (["a","b"]); single values are stored as plain text.
  • Up to 20 parameters are stored per link; any extra are ignored.
  • Each value is capped at 1000 characters.

View responses

Platform submissions appear in the same Responses, Insights, and CSV export views as widget submissions. See Viewing responses.

Turn Expose URL off in Settings when you no longer want the hosted page to accept submissions. Visitors to the old link will see that the survey is not available.
