Map Quiz Results Directly to Custom Fields

Understanding your audience better begins with smart data collection, and quizzes are one of the most engaging ways to achieve that. With the Quiz Result to Field Mapping feature, enables quiz outcomes to be automatically stored within contact-level custom fields in your . This turns every quiz submission into actionable data, ready to drive personalization, automation, and smarter segmentation without the need for manual tagging or third-party tools.

Key Features and Benefits

1. Automatic Custom Field CreationWhen a quiz is submitted, the system automatically generates custom fields for:

• Overall Score and Tier
• Category-wise Scores and Tiers
• Highest and Lowest Scoring Categories

This ensures every detail of quiz performance is captured cleanly and consistently.

2. Real-Time UpdatesWhenever a contact resubmits the same quiz, their custom fields are overwritten and not duplicated. This keeps records up-to-date, eliminating clutter or redundancy.

3. Seamless IntegrationMapped quiz fields integrate effortlessly with features such as:

• Contact segmentation
• Conditional workflows
• Automated follow-ups
• Dynamic personalization in emails and campaigns

4. PersonalizationWith quiz data stored in structured fields, you can tailor communications, recommend products, or design workflows based on individual quiz responses or performance tiers.

Auto-Generated Quiz Result Fields

The system scans quizzes on first submission and generates custom fields with predictable naming patterns:

• {{quiz_name}} – Overall Score
• {{quiz_name}} – Overall Score – Tier
• {{quiz_name}} – {{category_name}} – Score

Default Data Types:

• Scores → Number fields
• Tiers and Category Names → Text fields

This ensures compatibility with standard filters, workflow conditions, and personalization tools.

Real-Time Updates on Resubmission: If a contact retakes the quiz, existing values are overwritten rather than duplicated, keeping records clean.

Using Quiz Result Fields in Workflows & Automations

1. Segment Contacts Filter or group contacts based on quiz performance.

• Example: Create a Smart List of users with “Overall Score ≥ 80.”
• Example: Group users by “Fitness Tier = Beginner” for targeted messaging.

2. Personalize Automations Trigger specific follow-ups based on quiz results.

• Example: Send different nurture emails depending on highest or lowest category.
• Example: Trigger actions when a category score meets a threshold.

3. Power Conditional Logic Use mapped fields to create dynamic paths in workflows.

• Example: If {{quiz_name}} - Diet Tier = Advanced, send an advanced guide.
• Example: If {{quiz_name}} - Fitness Score < 50, enroll the contact in a beginner plan.
