Sharing & embedding your videoasks

By default, when you use the VideoAsk embed code it loads the widget automatically based on the options specified on <code>window.VIDEOASK_EMBED_CONFIG</code>.
However, there are some situations where you might want to load the widget dynamically using javascript, such as:
<ul>
<li>Load the videoask after a certain user action (ie click a button)</li>
<li>Load a specific videoask depending on the browser language</li>
<li>Show the videoask modal instead of the widget</li>
<li>Display multiple widgets</li>
</ul>
<h2>Using the embed code dynamically with javascript</h2>
To start, first you'll need to load our embed code using the following:
<pre>&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.videoask.com/embed/embed.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</pre>
 This will expose two global methods:
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>method</td>
<td> description
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>window.videoask.loadEmbed(<a href="#config" target="_self">config</a>, <a href="#callbacks" target="_self">callbacks</a>?)</code></td>
<td>This is the default method. It's used to load the widget.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>window.videoask.loadModal(<a href="#config" target="_self">config</a>, <a href="#callbacks" target="_self">callbacks</a>?)</code></td>
<td>This is an alternate method that allows you to load the videoask modal window directly without having to show the widget first. </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

<h2>Listening to messages </h2>
Embedded videoasks notify their parent windows of special events during the response flow. As a developer, you can subscribe to these messages to extract information or change the state of your app.
Videoasks use <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage" rel="nofollow"><code>window.postMessage()</code></a> to post events to the parent window. Our message data payload are JavaScript objects which always include a property named <code>type</code> whose value starts with <code>videoask_</code>, but that might also include extra properties depending on the event type.
<h2 id="h_01EGNB6MB5KS4XC7JETNMFDEY6">VideoAsk message types</h2>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>type</td>
<td>description</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>videoask_contact_created</td>
<td>Videoask loaded and contact was created</td>

<tr>
<td>videoask_question_presented</td>
<td>A question was presented</td>

If you're using the embed code, you can use the <a href="#callbacks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">onMessage callback</a> to listen for these messages.
Otherwise, if you're using just an iframe, you can use a piece of code like this:
<pre>const isVideoaskMessage = message =&gt; 
 message.origin === "https://www.videoask.com" &amp;&amp;
 message.data &amp;&amp;
 message.data.type &amp;&amp;
 message.data.type.startsWith("videoask_")

window.addEventListener("message", message =&gt; {
 if (!isVideoaskMessage(message)) {
 return
 }

 console.log("got videoask message", message.data)
});</pre>

Advanced embed options

With a <a href="https://www.videoask.com/pricing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Grow</a> or above plan, you can use Conditional Logic in your multi step videoasks to skip steps, or to take people down a different path depending on their answers to previous questions. 
<iframe src="//fast.wistia.com/embed/iframe/t498iyj17c" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>
To use Conditional Logic:
1. Open up a multi step videoask or start adding steps to a one step one. You’ll see the Conditional Logic options under each step:<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360043144711/MFVA_Conditional_Logic.png" alt="MFVA_Conditional_Logic.png">
 
2. Click the dropdown arrow next to a condition to see available options:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360043539972/MFVA_Conditional_Logic_Dropdown.png" alt="MFVA_Conditional_Logic_Dropdown.png" width="350" height="606">
<h3 class="wysiwyg-text-align-center">Tip: Conditional Logic works best with Multiple Choice questions. For example, if someone answers No to a Yes/No question, you can skip follow up questions. You can also take people down different paths, for example, you can have Dog person and a Cat person follow up questions based on previous answers.</h3>

How to use conditional logic

With a <a href="https://www.videoask.com/pricing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Grow</a>, or above, plan you can redirect your respondents to a web page after they answer your videoask. 
This could be your landing page or any other website, and with <a href="/help/Use-Conditional-Logic" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Conditional Logic</a>, you can also add multiple web page URLs depending on answers.
Here’s how to set it up:
1. Hit + New Videoask or use an already existing one. If this is your first time creating a videoask, head over <a href="/help/My-first-videoask" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> to find out more.
2. Click Edit this Videoask.
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360045693771/Redirect_Edit.png" alt="Redirect_Edit.png" width="685" height="270">
3. Click the dropdown arrow next to your question:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360051042892/Redirect_Dropdown.png" alt="Redirect_Dropdown.png" width="500" height="466">
4. Type or paste the web page URL you want to redirect your respondents to in the Redirect to a URL… field, and click the green tick:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360051042992/Screen_Shot_2020-03-02_at_3.11.34_PM.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-03-02_at_3.11.34_PM.png" width="500" height="462">
You can also type @ to add variables, and pass information from the answers to your videoask to the redirect URL.
In the example below, responders will be redirected to the Google search results of their text answer:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360051045052/Screen_Shot_2020-03-02_at_3.46.52_PM.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-03-02_at_3.46.52_PM.png" width="500" height="587">
<h1>Multi step redirects</h1>
When creating a multi step videoask, you can also add <a href="/help/Use-Conditional-Logic" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Conditional Logic</a> before your redirects, and take responders to different URL addresses based on their previous answers.
Here’s how it’s done:
1. Add a step with a Choice option.
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360045576892/Redirect_Choice.png" alt="Redirect_Choice.png" width="569" height="409">
2. Add Conditional Logic to the the different choices. In the example below, option A will jump to the ‘banana’ screen, and option B will jump to the ‘pasta’ screen.
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360045695631/Redirect_Logic.png" alt="Redirect_Logic.png" width="303" height="425">
<aside>
Note: You can add multiple branches or forks with Conditional Logic, but make sure to add the URL redirect to the final step of any given path. Once someone is redirected to a URL they can’t go back to answering steps in your videoask.
</aside>
3. Add a different URL redirect to show at the end of each path:<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360051046272/Redirect_Multi_URL.png" alt="Redirect_Multi_URL.png">
All done! Your changes are saved, and people will be redirected to different URLs based on their previous answers.

NPS VideoAsk Template

You can use Variables (previously known as Hidden Fields) to pass known information into your videoask URL. 
For example, if you already know your respondents' contact details, you don't have to ask them to fill out the contact form again.
Here are some use cases where Variables can come in handy:
<ul>
<li>Passing contact information</li>
<li>Adding marketing tracking</li>
<li>Tagging respondents by country</li>
</ul>
And here's how to add Variables to your videoask:
1. Hit Share this videoask. <img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360058790792/Group_4.png" alt="Group_4.png" width="349" height="151">
2. Click + Variables. <img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360058790612/Group_3.png" alt="Group_3.png">
4. Select one of the default variable options or click Add custom variable to create your own.
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360058798132/Variables.png" alt="Variables.png" width="446" height="544">
<aside>
Note! Creating custom variables is only available on a Grow or above plan. Custom variables must be alphanumeric, and you must use_underscores_to_separate_words. 
</aside>
5. Now you can answer your own videoask with your Variables to collect some sample data. This is what your answers will look like with data from your Variables: <img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360058945071/Frame_1.png" alt="Frame_1.png" width="357" height="285">
Want to know more about Variables? Check out <a href="/help/Use-hidden-fields-to-add-contact-information-to-your-videoask-URL" target="_self">this</a> Help Center article.

How to use variables

Once you begin receiving responses to your videoask, you may want to track or analyze them in Google Sheets or Excel. To do this, you can download a .csv or .xlsx file.
To download the responses of your videoask:
1. From your videoask inbox, click Export answers to a .csv or .xlsx file
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360069901732/download.png" alt="download.png" width="553" height="271">
2. Choose your file type
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360070120191/choose_file_type.png" alt="choose_file_type.png" width="591" height="389">
3. Open with your preferred spreadsheet software
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360069902012/csv_export.png" alt="csv_export.png">
The following information will be displayed on your spreadsheet:
<ul>
<li>Date and time of response submission</li>
<li>Respondent name</li>
<li>Respondent contact details (if enabled)</li>
<li>Question answers for each step</li>
<li>Video and audio transcriptions</li>
<li>Media urls for video and audio responses</li>
</ul>
If you would like to automate the process and add new entries to a spreadsheet like Google Sheets or Airtable each time you receive a new response, this can be done via the <a href="https://www.videoask.com/help/connect-videoask-to-hundreds-of-other-apps-with-zapier" target="_self">Zapier integration</a>.

Export responses to a .csv or .xlsx file

If you've set up your videoask to collect contact details from respondents, you may be seeing quite a few "Human" responses. Not to worry, this is completely normal!
When you create a videoask, you have the option to <a href="https://www.videoask.com/help/collect-contact-details-from-your-respondents" target="_self">collect contact details</a> from your respondents. 
If you do not enable the contact form, then all respondents to your videoask will appear as Humans, because there is no other way to identify them. 🙂
A VideoAsk inbox with the contact form disabled:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360069231931/not_collecting_contact_details.png" alt="not_collecting_contact_details.png" width="609" height="349">
If you have enabled the contact form and are still seeing a lot of Human responses, then this is because the respondent chose not to leave any contact information. In this situation, the respondent can still submit a text, audio or video response but they will appear as a "Human" in your inbox and the Reply button will be deactivated.
A VideoAsk inbox with the contact form enabled, but with some responses without contact details:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360069231631/Humans.png" alt="Humans.png" width="626" height="356">
Note: Keep in mind that VideoAsk works differently than traditional online forms, where a final "submit" button sends all answers to the server at once. When a respondent interacts with your videoask, their answers are sent to the server upon completion of each step, rather than all at once at the end. This means that you will still receive answers in your inbox even if the respondent didn't answer every single step (resulting in "incomplete" answers or "Humans")
How do I minimize the number of "Human" responses I receive?
There is no way to guarantee people will want to give out their contact details. However, here are a few suggestions that can help:
1. Add a step explaining why you are collecting contact information and how you will use it
2. Enable a <a href="https://www.videoask.com/help/add-a-consent-checkbox-to-your-contact-form" target="_self">consent checkbox</a>
3. Make contact form fields optional 
<ul>
<li class="wysiwyg-text-align-left">Go to Settings for your VideoAsk</li>
</ul>
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360069116952/Screen_Shot_2020-09-17_at_12.45.51_PM.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-09-17_at_12.45.51_PM.png" width="220" height="107">
<ul>
<li class="wysiwyg-text-align-left">Under Collect contact details, you can make the Name, Email, Phone and/or Consent fields Required.
</li>
</ul>
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360069116992/Screen_Shot_2020-09-17_at_12.46.39_PM.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-09-17_at_12.46.39_PM.png" width="275" height="222">
4. Experiment with <a href="https://www.videoask.com/help/choose-when-people-see-your-contact-form" target="_self" rel="undefined">where the contact form is placed</a> in your videoask, so respondents aren't immediately asked to give their contact details before interacting or engaging

Why are there so many Humans?

<pre class="c-mrkdwn__pre" data-stringify-type="pre">&lt;iframe src="<a class="c-link" href="https://www.videoask.com/SHARE_URL" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://www.videoask.com/SHARE_URL" data-sk="tooltip_parent">https://www.videoask.com/SHARE_URL</a>" allow="camera *; microphone *; autoplay *; encrypted-media *;" width="100%" height="600px" style="border: none; border-radius: 24px" &gt; &lt;/iframe&gt;</pre>

Share and embed your entire inbox (and filter by tag)

To help you comply with privacy laws you can now enable a checkbox field in your contact forms. You can of course also use it for other consent related use cases too. Read on to learn how!
 
1. Once logged into your VideoAsk account, select the videoask you’d like to share from the interactions panel.  
2. Select settings for this videoask from the dashboard .
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360067874271/Group_155.png" alt="Group_155.png" width="564" height="257"> 
3. Toggle ON Collect contact details and toggle ON Ask for consent. You can update the consent text to fit your use case!
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360069119612/Group_168.png" alt="Group_168.png" width="293" height="401">
You can also choose whether to make consent or any other field of your contact form is optional by checking the Required box next to each toggle.
TIP: Just below the toggle to Collect contact details, you can select after which step you'd like to collect that information. We recommend that you collect this information before any steps where respondents can give an answer you'd like to reply to or have consent for. This way, you'll be sure to have consent and avoid anonymous "human" answers to your videoask.
Note: If you'd like to collect consent without also collecting name and contact information, you can do that too! The consent form will appear in the videoask like this:

4. Now, when someone views your videoask, they'll have the option to check the consent checkbox.
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360067874331/Screen_Shot_2020-09-07_at_12.08_3.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-09-07_at_12.08_3.png" width="578" height="288">
If someone does NOT give consent, they will not be able to continue on in your videoask.

5. Once someone answers your videoask, you'll see a green checkmark next to the contact details in your inbox if the respondent has given consent. 
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360067874311/Group_157.png" alt="Group_157.png" width="678" height="410">
6. When you export your answers to a .csv or .xlsx file, you'll see the field where consent given is TRUE or N/A

Lead Generation VideoAsk Template

What is VideoAsk?
VideoAsk is a simple and effective way to get closer to your audience. Record a video straight from your phone or computer, share the link, then wait for the answers to roll in. No forms, no chatbots—just you.
How does VideoAsk work?
Record yourself asking a question/s, and then send that as a videoask to your audience. People can open the videoask, and answer you using video, audio or text (as well as multiple choice or calendar selection), from their phone or computer. All the answers are saved in your VideoAsk account for you to view and reply to at your leisure, via video. <a href="/help/360035946652" target="_self">Here's</a> a full guide to making a videoask.
How can I sign up for VideoAsk?
You can sign up using the link at the top of this page, or just click <a href="https://www.videoask.com/app/signup" target="_self">here</a>. All you need is an email address to get started with a free account.
What kind of devices can I use?
You can create videoasks using our <a href="https://www.videoask.com/app" target="_self">web-app</a> on your Windows, Mac computer or Android device or use our <a href="https://apps.apple.com/es/app/videoask/id1438100370?l=en" target="_self">native iPhone app</a>.
What browsers are supported?
Your audience can answer videoasks directly on all major browsers with some caveats on Safari and Chrome on iOS (which does not support audio recording) 
Safari desktop does not currently support MediaRecorder API which we use for video capture. Safari iOS and some Android custom browsers will default to the native camera app for video uploads.
However, you can switch on <a href="/help/360044119891" target="_self">'Live Recording'</a> which enables Safari to record video directly inside the browser. How long can a VideoAsk be?
Each videoask step can be up to 2 minutes long (unless you upload your own video).
Respondents that answer your videoask have by default 2 minutes of recording time per step. If you are on the Grow plan, you can increase the answer length up to 5 minutes.
Can I send multiple questions to people?
Yes! You can create a multi-step videoask, with sequential question. If you are on the GROW plan, you can add conditional logic to route respondents to different steps based on their multiple choice answer.
How can I share my videoask?
There are a few ways to share your videoask. Every one you create has its own URL, and anyone who clicks on that link can answer your videoask for as long as it's live. You can also embed a videoask on your website as an iframe or as a <a href="https://www.videoask.com/embed-widget" target="_self">widget</a>.
Can I remove VideoAsk branding?
Yes, on our BRAND paid plan. See all of our plans <a href="https://www.videoask.com/pricing" target="_self">here</a>.
How can I add GDPR consent to my videoasks?
Option a) Edit the contact form heading and button to include a consent message and a consent call to action button, by <a href="/help/Customize-the-text-of-your-VideoAsk-interface" target="_self">editing your interface texts</a>.
Option b) Create a videoask step asking for consent and outline the general terms. Give the respondent the choice to continue or not using a multiple-choice answer. <a href="/help/Use-Conditional-Logic" target="_self">Use logic</a> to allow them to continue or <a href="/help/Redirect-to-URL" target="_self">send them packing</a> ;)

Frequently asked questions

To make your videoasks more accessible or engaging, creators and respondents can turn on closed captions or subtitles in each video.
Respondents viewing your videoask have the option to turn on captions in the video control panel in the heading of your videoask:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360065888291/Group_134.png" alt="Group_134.png" width="342" height="107">
 
You also have the option to show captions to respondents by default (these will display in muted autoplay, before they press the play button to listen to your videoask). Leaving this option OFF will still allow respondents to opt-in to switch captions ON for accessibility. 
<h2>To show captions by default:</h2>
1.  Go to Settings for your videoask
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360065704292/Group_135.png" alt="Group_135.png" width="336" height="153">
2. Scroll down to Show captions by default and toggle ON
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360065708712/Screen_Shot_2020-08-24_at_3.50_1.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-08-24_at_3.50_1.png" width="382" height="71">
*Note: to give respondents the option to turn on captions, make sure Show video controls is turned ON in advanced settings 
 <img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360066265551/2020-08-25_14-12-37.png" alt="2020-08-25_14-12-37.png" width="394" height="157">
If your videoask (or videoask step) was created before August 24, 2020, you will need to update the transcript in order for the captions to appear. 
<h2>To update a transcript: 
</h2>
1. Go to edit this videoask
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360065704312/Group_137.png" alt="Group_137.png" width="353" height="156">
2. Select edit this step for the step that you’d like to display captions
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360065888351/Group_138.png" alt="Group_138.png" width="603" height="204">
3. If the transcript view allows you to play, edit words, and copy text then captions will work for this step:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360065889391/Screen_Shot_2020-08-24_at_3.21_1.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-08-24_at_3.21_1.png" width="527" height="254">
4. If you see a message saying “This transcription is an older format, please update for captions to be available” you’ll need to click update in order for the captions to work for this step.
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360066024551/Screen_Shot_2020-08-24_at_6.49_1.png" alt="Screen_Shot_2020-08-24_at_6.49_1.png" width="605" height="305"> 
Once you update an older transcription, you will be able to turn on captions as well as <a href="/help/360048245912" target="_self">edit your captions</a> by selecting edit words and make any necessary changes.
<h2>Change caption language:</h2>
1. Go to your videoask Settings

Here’s how:
1. Select a videoask and go to its Settings.

Do you want your responders to get the best quality recording for your use case? Find out when it's best to use Live Recording, and when to opt in to using Uploaded Recording. 
NOTE: Live Recording is the default setting for all videoasks created after August 19, 2020. To change from Live Recording to Uploaded Recording, go into Settings for your videoask and scroll down to Recording:
<img src="https://videoask.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360065255751/image__1_.png" alt="image__1_.png" width="372" height="159">
<h1>What is an Uploaded Recording?</h1>
VideoAsk captures the video or voice recording of the respondent on their device, and uploads it when the respondent confirms that they're ready.
We record via the browser's built-in <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaRecorder">Media Recorder</a>.
However, not all browsers have support for Media Recorder...
<ul>
<li>In-browser video capture is not supported on Safari Desktop yet (users can simply upload a video file from their computer).</li>
<li>In-browser video capture is not supported on Safari iOS yet (we use the iOS native camera app to capture video).</li>
<li>The native camera app on iOS does NOT allow HD size recordings to be uploaded to the browser. This results in low resolution (480x640) recordings submitted on iOS devices.</li>
<li>On supported browsers, recording happens locally using device resources such as disk space until the upload is completed.</li>
<li>Once a recording is complete, the user has to wait until the recording is uploaded.</li>
</ul>
NOTE: All creator videos are uploaded when they are created. Live Recording is only an option for respondents. 
<h1>What is a Live Recording?</h1>
VideoAsk streams the video or voice recording and records it in real-time on the server. If the respondent does not confirm, VideoAsk doesn't store the recording.
Live recordings rely on <a href="https://webrtc.org/">webRTC</a> to achieve in-browser video and audio capture.
<aside>
Note: Live recording is not yet implemented for threaded replies, only for initial answers.
</aside>
Why choose Live Recording?
<ul>
<li>Better respondent experience – no waiting time to upload.</li>
<li>Better reliability on slower connections/networks as the resolution and bitrate will downscale to avoid failed recordings.</li>
<li>Safari in-browser video recording is now fully supported.</li>
<li>HD recordings are also now achievable on iOS devices when the connection is good enough. 
</li>
</ul>
What's the key difference between Uploaded and Live Recording?
<ul>
<li>Network speed is not relevant for Uploaded Recording, as it's just uploading a file from your device.
</li>
<li>Live Recording always adjusts resolution and bitrate based on the user's device performance and the speed of their network connection. 
</li>
</ul>
Choose Uploaded Recording if:
<ul>
<li>You want to guarantee the highest quality recording from a given device</li>
<li>Your respondents can wait for their recording to upload</li>
<li>Your users can drop out due to slow upload</li>
<li>The internet connection can suddenly drop out</li>
<li>It's not a problem if your respondents on iOS are not able to record in HD</li>
</ul>
Example use cases: Testimonials, Compilation videos 
Choose Live Recording if: 
<ul>
<li>You want to optimize for reliability and user experience on slower networks</li>
<li>You want better browser support</li>
<li>You want HD recordings on iOS</li>
<li>You don't mind getting lower quality videos if the user has a worse connection</li>
</ul>
Example use cases: Feedback, Customer support, Lead generation
Note: Regardless of which option is used respondents will always have the opportunity to view and submit or reject a video after it is recorded.
=====================
One more thing... Respondents can always just upload a pre-recorded video instead. In this case, the only limitation that we impose is a max file size of 200Mb. Respondents can use this option if they want to send video files directly and by-pass any device/browser limitation. 
You'll find the upload button in the toolbar which appears at the top of the screen when a respondent chooses to answer via video.
