Create your Appboy Embedded Thermometer
Create a new Embedded Thermometer.
Choose “Basic HTML” from the Embedded Thermometer type drop down box.
Generate your embed code
Click the Generate embed code button. You will see a window popup.
To capture identifiable data about the recipient and sender etc we use Appyboy’s variables within the survey code. Enter your Appboy variables as shown below. These variables will provide identifiable feedback and dictate which data is captured alongside Customer Thermometer rating. You can add more variables if you wish, click ‘Add more fields’.
Below are a few Appboy variables for easy copying but you can add any variables from Appboy you wish:
{{custom_attribute.${zip code}}} {{${first_name}}} {{${last_name}}} {{${email_address}}}
Add the embed code to an Appboy template
Click the pink “Generate HTML” button and copy the HTML code generated.
Navigate to the correct part of your Appboy email template and paste the embed code, to display the Thermometer icons and tracking links. When an email is then sent to an Appboy contact, the Attributes will merge with contact data.
All feedback responses will generate identifiable feedback ratings and be stored inside your account.
