Logging trial data during incomplete experiments #48

Hi Erwin,

For QRTE experiment sessions that aren't completed (i.e. under "Responses in progress" tab in the Qualtrics results), does QRTE log the completed trials, and should this data therefore be available in the Qualtrics download?

I'm working on debugging an experiment that has been 'freezing' on some trials, and I was hoping to be able to access the data that should be logged before the session froze. To do this, I've detected when the freezing problem occurs, and if so skip the rest of the trial and go straight to QRTE.Exit() (which I think sends the trial data to the Qualtrics server). However, in the Qualtrics file I get the appropriate variable names but no data, even for the successful trials before the problem occurs. Do you know why this is happening?

Thanks, Becky

Hi again,

The partial data is actually being stored correctly, I just missed it when looking in the files. Sorry!
