3. Create user action to trigger Feedback Box:

Go to the “Audience” tab, find the “When to send” card and choose “Add Action”. We will now use our super cool No-Code User Action Tracker:

Add action

We have two options to track the Feedback Button in your application: innerText and CSS-Selector:

  1. innerText: This means that whenever a user clicks any HTML item in your app which has an innerText of Feedback the Feedback Box will be displayed.
  2. CSS-Selector: This means that when an element with a specific CSS-Selector like #feedback-button is clicked, your Feedback Box is triggered.

5. Set Recontact Options correctly

Scroll down to “Recontact Options”. Here you have to choose the right settings so that the Feedback Box pops up every time the user action is performed. (Our default is that every user sees every survey only once):
