What are variables?
In XQuiz, a variable is like a box where you store information that the user provided during the quiz. This information can be used:- To send data to external tools (like RD Station or ActiveCampaign).
- To personalize quiz content (like showing the person’s name in a sentence).
- To create conditional logic (like showing a specific result based on responses).
- Capture name, email, or phone and send to your CRM.
- Store information like interest = weight loss and use it later to show a specific product.
- Sum points based on responses and, at the end, display a personalized result for that user profile.

How to use variables in the points system
Example: Imagine you’re creating a game where you need to store the player’s score. You can create a variable called score and assign an initial value, like 0. score = 0 During the game, when the player scores points, you can update the score variable’s value with the new value. This tells the system: “Take the current value of the score and add 10 more.” The score value is now 10. To insert a variable correctly, click the button with the icon in the corner of the field. This opens a small list with all created variables. Click on the desired variable, and it will be added in the correct format, for example: Always separate elements with space, as in the example below: The expression field can perform simple mathematical operations, such as plus, minus, times, and divide (+, -, *, /). Important tips!- Use simple names without spaces. Ex: email, phone, score.
