Glue Logic Example

If you want to randomize elements in a survey (using the Randomize checkbox) while also keeping certain answers together, use [glue ...] logic. Specify which elements should stay together using , (AND) to preserve their order, or . (OR) to also randomize the order within the glued group.

For example, say you're asking respondents about their preferred morning beverage and want to group coffee-based and tea-based drinks together.

1. Type the question text and answer choices into the editor page.
2. Select the Randomize checkbox in the bottom right corner of the question.
3. Type the Glue logic syntax into the question text field:
   • [Glue Q1A1,2,3] — glues together the coffee-based options: Latte, Black coffee, and Espresso
   • [Glue Q1A5,6] — glues together the tea-based options: Black tea and Green tea
   • Final logic: [Glue Q1A1,2,3] [Glue Q1A5,6]
4. Click Quick Preview in the left sidebar to verify the logic is functioning as desired.
