Distributing your EMA and ESM project to Participants

How to Distribute Projects to Participants

After creating and scheduling your surveys, the next step is to decide how to distribute your project.

Select the Distribution Option

You can choose 3 distribution types to invite your participants to your project.

1. Invite via Access Code

Many researchers distribute their projects by using an access code invitation. You just need to give your participants the access code. They will then need to download the ExpiWell application, which is available on iOS and Android, and create an account. Afterward, they can enter the project access code and join your project to answer your surveys.

You can also set a limit for Participants Allowed to the project.

2. Invite via Email Address

If you have the participants' email addresses, you can invite them via email. This will prompt them to download the ExpiWell application and join your project directly.

Invite via Email Address option

You will also be able to view the status of the email address you invited.

If you have a list of your participants' email addresses, you can also import a CSV file with their email addresses. Click on 'Import' to add your CSV file.

3. Provide Temporary Accounts to Participants

Some researchers provide temporary accounts to participants instead of requiring them to create their own ExpiWell accounts. This is particularly helpful when dealing with an older population that may not be familiar with mobile apps, or when working with participants who are brought in directly.

Provide Temporary Accounts to Participants option

You can create a system-generated username and password that you can provide to your participants.

If the password is blank, the system will automatically provide a password you can distribute to your participants. You can also choose your own passwords in the CSV file.
