The Single Sign On Authenticator can limit only USI employees and students to participate in a survey/form and it can allow for fields such as first name, last name, USI email, and USI ID to be pre-populated within the form with certified correct data from Banner. This assists in making forms that need participants to fill in these fields easier to complete as well as verifying data with the university’s records. This will prohibit a survey from displaying if embedded onto a website. Post the link to the survey instead, to allow for USI employees and students to participate.

You must enter the Embedded Data to Set and Field from SSO EXACTLY as shown below for the fields that you want to populate. You are not required to enter all of the fields. Best practice for doing so is simply copy and pasting into the authenticator in your Qualtrics form from the table below.
