Link, QR code and embed

The simplest route is a public link, a QR code for print, posters and packaging, or an iframe embed that places the survey straight into your website.

That reaches respondents where they already are — at the point of sale, in the app or on the landing page.

  • Public link for email, social and messengers
  • QR code for print, posters and packaging
  • iframe embed directly on your own website

One-time invite links as a CSV

For mailing lists you generate one-time invite links as a CSV. Each link accepts exactly one response — preventing multiple participation and keeping your sample clean.

And because URL parameters like source or panel are captured directly as variables, your dataset later knows exactly which channel each response came from — with no manual attribution.

  • Each link accepts exactly one response
  • URL parameters (source, panel) directly as variables
  • Clean sample with no multiple participation

Mobile-first survey runner

Respondents experience the survey in the mobile-first survey runner — with animated transitions and auto-advance that moves on automatically after an answer. That keeps drop-off low.

You connect external panels and fielding providers (e.g. Dynata, Qualtrics, LamaPoll) via integrations — DataLion does not operate its own panel, but gives you the link, QR code and parameter capture for any field setup.

Common questions about survey distribution

How can I distribute a DataLion survey?
Via a public link, a QR code or an iframe embed. For mailing lists you additionally generate one-time invite links as a CSV, each of which accepts exactly one response.
What are one-time invite links?
They are a CSV export of individual links for your mailing list. Each link accepts exactly one response — so you prevent multiple participation and keep your sample clean.
Can I capture which channel a response came from?
Yes. URL parameters like source or panel are captured directly as variables in the dataset. So every response is attributed to a channel, with no work after the fact.
Is the survey optimized for mobile devices?
Yes. The survey runner is mobile-first and ships with animated transitions and auto-advance that moves on automatically after an answer — which keeps drop-off low.
Does DataLion offer its own respondent panel?
No. DataLion does not operate its own panel. You connect external panels and fielding providers like Dynata, Qualtrics or LamaPoll via integrations — distribution itself runs through link, QR code, embed and one-time invite links.
