Creating a Mobile Project

Before you begin

It is best practice to create a new channel for a mobile project. Customer Admins can create a new channel via Channel management.

Channels are set to automatically process CaptureMe uploads for Machine Speech-to-Text (Machine Speech Recognition) and machine (Automatic) translation, for all supported languages. Customer Admins can review and edit a channel's transcription and translation settings, see Channel management Auto Requests tab.

If your account does not include a Customer Admin user role, contact Video Support via Medallia Knowledge Center to:

• Request a new channel for the mobile project.
• Request a transcription and translation solution for all spoken languages in project markets.

Create a mobile project

1. Start from the desired Video channel and click Mobile.

2. Click Create New Mobile Project.

   Tip: If the project is in more than one language, create a new mobile project for each language.

3. In the Create Mobile Project modal window, complete all fields on the Project Details tab.

   1. Mobile Project Name (Respondent-Facing) — Required. This is the respondent-facing project name.

   2. Project Code Prefix — Required. Video recommends using at least 2-3 characters. The prefix is part of unique Project Code for participants (for example, DEM-01).

      The Project Code must be unique to the Medallia Video platform. If the platform displays the message This Code Has Been Used Before, select a different code.

   3. Project Expiry Date — Respondents will no longer be able to upload content after this date.

   4. Privacy Policy URL — Required. Insert a URL link to your privacy policy. If you do not have a privacy policy URL, input the Medallia Privacy Policy.

   5. Click Save draft.

   6. Click Next to move to the Tasks tab.

4. Complete all fields on the Tasks tab. After you create your first task, you can edit tasks at any point.

   1. Task Title — Required. Add a title to the first task.

      Tip: Number tasks (for example, Task 1 Introduction) so they are easy to use in Video. Task Titles are filters for media uploaded to the task.

   2. Description — Provide information and guidance for respondents. Best practice is to include any information that will help the respondent complete the task, such as what to include in their response, and if there are a minimum number of uploads or recording length.

      Drag the extender in the bottom corner of the Description text box to enlarge the field of view.

   3. Click + Add another to create additional tasks as needed.

      Tasks appear in the order they are listed from the top to the bottom of the screen. Users cannot re-order tasks.

      Tip: To insert a task between existing tasks, click + Add another to create a blank task. Copy/paste existing task text below the new blank task.

   4. Click Save draft.

   5. Click Next to move to the User codes tab.

5. Generate Project Codes via the User codes tab.

   On the User codes tab, there are two options for generating Project Codes. The platform can generate random codes or you can import custom codes.

   1. Option 1 — Random Project Codes. Example: DEM-BQHVV

      1. In the Number of user codes field, type in the number of participants (for example, 10). Or, within the field click until you reach the number of codes needed. Best practice is add 1-2 extra codes for your internal testing purposes.

      2. Click Generate.

      3. The platform generates the codes.

         Note: The values that populate in the Respondent table, such as GeneratedCode-1, are not the Project Codes to give respondents. The Respondent table values are only to be used to allocate tasks. Once you publish the mobile project, retrieve the unique Project Codes from the Report screen, see Managing a mobile project.

   2. Option 2 — Custom Project Codes. Example: DEM-JohnD

      1. In an Excel spreadsheet, list the codes in column A starting in cell A1. Codes must be alphanumeric, do not include punctuation or special characters.

      2. Save the sheet as a .CSV.

      3. In Video, click Import Project Codes. Select and upload the .CSV file.

   3. After you generate or import Project Codes, use the Respondents table to allocate tasks to each respondent. Check the checkbox under the task title to assign the task to the respondent. To allocate a task to all respondents, check the checkbox in the Respondents table header to the left of the Task number.

   4. Optionally, add additional Project Codes and edit task allocation as needed.

6. Click Save draft.

7. Click Publish to publish the mobile project.

Retrieve your Project Codes for internal testing and to communicate to respondents from the Display Report screen. For more information, see Managing a mobile project.

Managing a mobile project

Overview of the Mobile Projects screen

The Mobile Projects screen lists all mobile projects in a channel. By default, it displays mobile projects that are currently active. Use the Project Status menu to toggle between a list of active and inactive (project expiry date has passed) mobile projects.

The Mobile Projects screen displays the following information about the mobile projects in a channel.

• Mobile Project Name — The mobile project name as input at the time of project creation. Editable.
• Project Code Prefix — The Project Code Prefix input at the time of project creation. Not editable.
• Expiry Date — The date the mobile project is set to close. Editable.
• Project Status
  • Active — An active project has not reached the Expiry Date.
  • Inactive — An Inactive project has passed the Expiry Date.
• State
  • Unpublished — a draft state.
  • Published — The project is accessible in the CaptureMe app by inputting a mobile Project Code.

Available actions

The following actions are available on the Mobile Projects screen.

Edit — Click to edit the mobile project, such as to add or edit tasks, change the project Expiry Date, or to edit respondents' task allocations. Edit is available for Published and Not Published mobile projects. Edit is the default action for Not Published projects. To access a Published project's Edit Mobile Project modal, click and select Edit.

Once a mobile project status is Published, click Publish in the Edit Mobile Project modal to save edits.

Delete — Delete is only available for Not Published projects. Delete the mobile project while it is still in a draft state. To delete a project, click and select Delete.

Display Report — Display Report is only available for Published mobile projects. Click Display Report to view a list of all project codes and track respondent activity.

Report screen

The report screen is labeled with the Mobile Project Name. The report shows the following information:

• Respondent — The Generated or Imported user number. This corresponds to the Respondent column on the Edit Mobile Project modal window's User codes tab.
• Code — The Project Code. This is required to access the mobile project via the CaptureMe app. Only give a Project Code to one respondent.

Testing a mobile project

Launching a mobile project

To launch the mobile project, send an email to each respondents with their assigned Project Code, the CaptureMe Mobile App Guide and any project-specific instructions.

Download the CaptureMe Mobile App Guide.

This is an example mobile project email to a respondent:

Troubleshooting respondent technical issues

Fixing stalled uploads

Stalled uploads can be caused by inconsistent Wi-Fi, closing the app during the uploading and multiple videos uploading simultaneously. If an upload has not made any progress in one hour, follow these steps to restart the upload:

1. Save videos to device — If your recordings aren't already, save your recordings to your device by clicking the 'Folder' icon in the top right corner of the CaptureMe app, selecting the stalled videos, then saving to your device.

2. Delete the CaptureMe app — Delete the app from your mobile device and re-download it from the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play Store (Android). Open the app, type in your Project Code and follow the prompts to access your project over a Wi-Fi connection.

3. Upload one file at a time — Go back to your first task, tap video, audio, or image and tap the 'Upload From Device' option to select and upload the appropriate media from your device folder. Ensure one video has fully uploaded before beginning to upload the following file. Keep the app open while each file uploads.
