Available
Fields to make available to the sample management script. Cancel any that are not used by the sample management script. You cannot cancel required fields.
Fields whose contents are used only by the interview script become available during interviews and need not be selected here.
Authentication
Fields to use for authenticating inbound callers taking Web interviews. Choose the fields you want to use, and cancel any you do not.
If you need to be able to select specific participant records, select the Id field because this is a key to the database and is guaranteed to contain a unique value for each record.
If you authenticate on a field that might contain non-unique values, the sample management system selects the first record whose value in that column matches the values specified in the sample management script.
Field
Field names. You cannot change these settings.
