We've long had a feature to allow you to link two surveys together using an Event API - Survey to Survey Event.
This would allow you to progress respondents from one survey into another, optionally duplicating some of their responses from the first survey into the second.
In all cases this previously required you to invite the participants from the first survey to the second. You can now automate the process and have them placed in a waiting room, whilst the backend processes are completed to duplicate their data and setup their new response.
This guide will demonstrate the steps to have a waiting room for surveys using the Event API Survey to Survey process.
- 1. You should setup your surveys exactly as you normally would now, using the Event API processes in the same way.

- 2. Edit the Distribution of the SOURCE Survey and ensure that you use a "Thank You" Message
You must choose both a "Thank You" Message and also choose "Waiting Room" and enter appropriate messages
- 3. The waiting room will now be displayed upon completion of the source survey and your respondents will wait until their target survey is ready and will then be progressed to it.
