Hi All,
I have been trying to trigger the survey to the external users whose email id was stored in a string field and the survey notification for that user was going through event and the event was given in business rule with conditions when after a record is interested in target table.
Also, the Enable public access was already set in the Survey
now when the email is triggering to the external user , but when we open the survey email link getting below messages as " You are not authorized or the record is not valid. " and when we go and check for the survey instances under survey there was no record created.
can any one help me with this , how to achieve and why unable to access the survey
Thanks in advance
