Example - How to display a survey on the SharePoint search results page when no results are found

You can create a survey that will appear on a page only when specific conditions apply. In this example we will show you how to display a survey to visitors immediately after they perform a search that returned no results.

In the main Surveys user interface, create a continual survey that will appear on the SharePoint search results page when no results are found.
In the Survey General Behaviour dialog, under who should be prompted to take this survey, select No one (this is a continual survey).
Create a new segment (for more information see "How to create a segment") with the following parameters:

Segment Type - Basic segment
Segment Scope - Page
URL - contains "osssearchresults.aspx" (the SharePoint search results page)
Add a pixel of type Script to the segment and enter the following script path - /_layouts/CardioLogAgent/searchresults.js
Contact your system administrator in order to edit the survey ID in the searchresults.js script (var survey_id_to_show).
When using the CardioLog tracking agent feature, the searchresults.js script is located under the SharePoint web application _layouts folder on all WFEs.
The survey ID can be retrieved from the tab_voc_surveys table in the CardioLog database.
Contact Intlock if you need any assistance.

Note: The code in this example is compatible with SharePoint 2013 default search.

When a visitor will visit the search results page, it will be added to the segment and the script will be executed (the pixel will be fired). The code will display the survey only when the search returns no results.
