The first line of the CSV must contain the headers indicating the user field represented by each column, which can be any of the following: userId, user_id, id, userEmail, user_email, email, userFirstName, user_firstname, firstName, firstname, userLastName, user_lastname, lastName, lastname, filter, language, ip, browser, os, city, country, latitude, longitude.

How to create NPS shareable links.

The NPS by Links feature (link) allows you to create direct links to your NPS surveys.

  1. In your Beamer account, go NPS > NPS by Link (bubble_chart).
  2. There, look for the Single-user link section, write the email address and click on Generate Link to create and copy the link.
  3. A URL will appear and if you click on it will get copied, ready to share.

How to create links campaigns.

Link campaigns allow to generate a link that can be accessed by multiple users. To create one:

  1. In your Beamer account, go NPS > NPS by Link (bubble_chart).
  2. There, look for the Link campaigns section.
  3. Click on the Create New Link Campaign button, this will create a new link.
  4. You can change the title or alias of your campaign by changing the name input.
  5. You can copy the link by clicking on the link input.

Link campaigns can be temporarily paused (then re-enabled) by clicking on the pause button (pause). This means that the link will no longer work until the campaign is re-enabled by clicking on the play button (play_arrow). You can copy a campaign link by clicking on the copy icon (content_copy) and delete them permanently by clicking on the delete button (delete).

Each link is reusable and can be shared with multiple users, optionally adding any or all of the following parameters to identify each distinct responder: userId, email, firstName and lastName.

Example link with user parameters:
.../npsSurvey?l=xxxxx&userId=1234&email=jdoe%40getbeamer.com&firstName=Jane&lastName=Doe
