Error parsing file: The file does not appear to be a valid survey. Save as qsf - am I doing it wrong? import doesn't work #335
Comments
I checked it further, and it works well for most surveys but not all. |
Sure. So long as they don't contain anything sensitive/private (in any sense applicable to what you do), I'd be happy to take a look at a pair of qsf's from the same survey--one working, web-downloaded one, plus one non-working one from Might also be useful if you have a pair of web-download/ BTW, what platform are you working from (Windows/Mac/Linux)? Not sure if that will be relevant but it can sometimes comes into play when we're generating files like we are here. |
Hi, . s34 - working (partially) Encoding: There is another huge issue for us: we work a lot in Hebrew and Arabic. The encoding (for both QSF and the data exported) is UTF-8. So, the Hebrew text becomes gibberish. I still don't know how to handle it. I had to zip the files because GitHub won't accept .qsf file attachments. Again, thank you so much for creating the package, fetch_qsf(), and for your assistance. |

Hurray - one down :) |

qsfS <- try(fetch_qsf(surveyID = surveys$id[i], file = surveys$qsfFileName[i],
save = TRUE))
However, when I try to import it into Qualtrics, it issues an error:
Error parsing file: The file does not appear to be a valid survey.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
