Use user attributes as visibility rules

The main objective of Whatfix-SurveyMonkey integration is to collect data from Google Sheet and use the auto-created Whatfix User Attributes for segmentation purposes.

On completion of the first integration run, these attributes are available in the Visibility Rules section of widgets, under the User Attribute condition.

Use the following steps to add user attributes as visibility rules,

Navigate to the Visibility Rules section of the pop-up where you have embedded the survey.
Select the User Attribute condition from the drop-down menu.
Select the Attributes you want as part of the Visibility Rules and then enter its value.
Finish creating the widget.
