In-App Survey

Create an in-app Survey in Digia Engage and trigger it from a MoEngage campaign.

This guide walks you through creating a simple NPS Survey, attaching it to a Digia Survey campaign, connecting that campaign to MoEngage, and testing it on a device.

Unlike a Nudge or Guide, a Survey has two parts: the reusable Survey content and the campaign that delivers it.

This guide keeps the Survey itself intentionally simple. For deeper survey design, read Understanding and Building Surveys, Survey Blocks Reference, Survey Branching and Logic, and Survey Global Settings.

Before You Start

Make sure you have:

• Access to the correct Digia Engage project created with MoEngage as the CEP integration.

• Access to the matching MoEngage project.

• Your app must already be integrated with Digia Engage and MoEngage. Share the MoEngage developer integration guide with your app team if this setup is not complete yet.

• The audience and trigger event decided in MoEngage.

• If you plan to target specific app screens, review usable pages in Component Registry.

• A test profile or test segment in MoEngage so you can verify the campaign before launch.

This guide is written for product managers and marketers. Developer-only setup is linked above so you know what must already be complete before campaign testing.

For this walkthrough, we will build a default Numeric 0-10 NPS Survey with Until completed delivery.

---

1. Create the Survey

Go to Surveys and choose New survey. Use an internal name such as:

NPS Feedback Survey

Create the reusable Survey before creating the campaign that will deliver it.

---

2. Add the Default NPS Block

In the Survey builder, choose Add a block, open the NPS category, and select Numeric 0-10. Keep the default scale and update the question copy.

Use the Numeric 0-10 block for a standard NPS-style question.

The builder has blocks on the left, mobile preview in the middle, and properties on the right. Keep the default welcome screen, Numeric 0-10 block, and result page for this first test.

Edit the NPS question in the preview and keep defaults unless you need a visual adjustment.

---

3. Check Logic and Survey Settings

For this default NPS Survey, keep Logic set to Linear. Every respondent should see the welcome screen, answer the NPS question, and then see the result page.

Keep the flow linear for the default NPS Survey.

---

4. Create a Survey Campaign

After the Survey is ready, go to Campaigns and choose New Campaign. Use a campaign name such as:

NPS Feedback Survey - MoEngage

On the Basics step, select Survey and continue.

Select Survey as the campaign type so you can attach survey content.

---

5. Attach the NPS Survey

On the Choose UI step, select the NPS Feedback Survey you created earlier. The Survey content stays reusable; the campaign controls delivery and the campaign key.

Attach the saved NPS Survey to this campaign.

Once the Survey is attached and saved, use Live Testing Campaigns to send it to a connected debug device and confirm the prompt, result page, and submit flow before moving into delivery, review, and MoEngage setup.

---

6. Set Delivery Rules in Digia

For most feedback Surveys, Until completed is a good starting point. It lets the Survey show again in a later session until the user submits it, then stops.

Use a frequency cap that avoids repeatedly asking users after they complete the Survey.

---

7. Review and Copy MoEngage Config

Check that the correct Survey is attached and the frequency cap matches your feedback plan. You can save as draft while MoEngage setup is pending, or activate when ready.

Review the campaign summary and launch checks before saving or activating.

Copy the Digia campaign key from the MoEngage setup section.

---

8. Create the MoEngage Self-Handled In-App Campaign

Create a MoEngage Self-Handled In-App campaign. MoEngage decides the audience, trigger event, schedule, and priority. Digia decides what renders after the campaign fires.

Name the MoEngage campaign, choose platforms, select the trigger, and define the audience.

On the content step, switch to Start from scratch if MoEngage opens the template gallery first.

If you land on the template gallery, move to Start from scratch before choosing the content type.

Choose Self-Handled content so MoEngage can pass the Digia Survey campaign key to the app.

Select Self-Handled for the campaign content.

---

9. Link MoEngage to the Digia Survey

In MoEngage, go to the campaign data or key-value pairs section and add the Digia payload. Survey campaigns currently require only digia_campaign_key.

{
  "digia_campaign_key": "nps_feedback_survey_moengage"
}

Keep the Survey questions, answer options, branching, and result pages in Digia. MoEngage should only carry the campaign key.

Paste the Survey campaign key into the MoEngage Self-Handled payload.

---

10. Test the Survey End to End

1. Use a test audience in MoEngage.

2. Activate or preview the MoEngage campaign for that audience.

3. Trigger the event from a test device.

4. Confirm the Survey appears in the app.

5. Select an NPS score and submit.

6. Confirm the result page appears.

7. Confirm the Survey does not appear again after completion, if you selected Until completed.

Use MoEngage's test campaign flow to send the Survey to a test user or device.

Before publishing, confirm schedule, priority, delivery controls, and goals.

If the Survey does not appear, check:

What to check	Why it matters
The Digia campaign is active	Draft campaigns will not render
The NPS Survey is attached	The campaign needs saved Survey content
digia_campaign_key matches exactly	The key is case-sensitive
The MoEngage campaign uses Self-Handled In-App	The Digia plugin only receives the expected payload format
The user qualifies in MoEngage	MoEngage owns audience and trigger rules
Frequency cap has not already been reached	Digia may suppress repeat renders after completion

MoEngage can sometimes take time to start delivering a newly activated campaign. If the campaign still does not appear after your usual campaign propagation window, reach out to Digia support.
