Configuration Requirements
An Online Test/Questionnaire must be created as a piece of content in the LMS to send questions and answers in an email template. Questions and answers from other types of content are not available to be emailed using this method. For step-by-step instructions on setting up an Online Test/Questionnaire, see Knowledgebase article: Content — Create Online Test/Questionnaire.
Customize an Email Template
- Create a new template or edit an existing email template. For step-by-step instructions on setting up an Email Template, see Knowledgebase article: Communications — Email Tab.
- In Email Text, use [test_question_n] and [test_answer_n] to correspond to test questions and learner answers to be included in the email. The “n” should be replaced with the number of the test question and the corresponding answer within the test, starting with the first question. For example, to provide learners with the question and their answer for the first question on the test, use [test_question_1] and [test_answer_1].
-
- If there are multiple responses to a single question, each answer selected by the student will be listed, separated by a semicolon (response1; response2; response3).
