    We've just updated ours to address two possible issues. 

    - There has been some commentary on CSAT requests in general that some advanced spam filters will follow links and that the last clicked link will be the one leaving the CSAT... which is of course 'bad' - one extra 'bad' skews our numbers significantly. Although we had no evidence ourselves of this happening, we thought we'd address this.  We adjusted this by adding a 1px image with a link to 'good' under the bad one.  Since we're running at 95% good, an extra 'good' does not significantly skew the numbers.

    We also still saw some issues when images were not showing and Outlook not showing Alt text.  So have added a textual version below the original.  Was NOT fun getting this to sit right in Outlook!

     

     How it looks in Gmail - with images

     

    ---------------------------------

     

    How it looks in Outlook - no images

    --------------------------------------------

    Changed code is as follows - replaces the middle section only (inside <a> tags)

    <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td height="20" width="175px" style="font-size: 20px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="{{satisfaction.positive_rating_url}}"><img height="150px" width="150px" alt="" src="https://URL/happy-face.png"></a></td><td height="20" width="175px" style="font-size: 20px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="{{satisfaction.negative_rating_url}}"><img height="150px" width="150px" alt="" src="https://URL/sad-face.png"></a></td></tr></table> 
    <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px;"><span id="csat123" style="color:white;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</span></td><td style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="{{satisfaction.positive_rating_url}}">Feeling fine!</a></td><td height="20" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px;"><span id="csat123" style="color:white;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</span><a href="{{satisfaction.negative_rating_url}}">Not so great</a></td></tr></table>
    <a href="{{satisfaction.positive_rating_url}}"><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP///wAAACH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw=="></a>

    How did I miss this!? And why am I not surprised that this tip is from you!? :)

    Love it. Thanks!

    Thanks Jen and Jessie.

    I'd really love to add a 'meh' face too... but there is no neutral c-sat option. Considered linking this to a negative - and might do yet, because if we aim to be great, 'Meh' is a total failure.

    This is still working really good for us.  Getting more responses than we ever got with the original C-SAT, and the questions are really more in line with what really counts - how our customer is feeling about us.

    Great to hear that responses are up, Andrew! I guess people like those smiley and frowny faces. So easy.

    Looks great. Out of curiosity, how to do you handle cases were the user hasn't downloaded the pictures because of their email client settings?

    Hello Lester,  I don't think it works well for that... got any suggestions for changes?

    Sadly not. Beyond some way of showing the links in place of the images I don’t think there is an elegant solution

    I love this tip! We did this of our own accord about 18 months or so back and saw an instant uptick in our response rate.

    Thanks

    Hi Everyone

    i am not that tech savy and not too sure how to save these as an asset

    are you able to walk me through it?

  • Andrew J

    Hello Michaela, if you have Guide pro, or Legacy, you should be able to go into the theme editor and upload assets

     

    If not, try just adding these to a public article - maybe one announcing the new change :)

    Once they are uploaded you should be able to reference them... I think.

    Right click on the image in a published article... and select 'Copy image address' - this is the reference you need to replace the SRC section in the code :)

    Hi Andrew,

    couldn't agree more with you on the importance of visual conventions when it comes to improving client feedback! We're about to release our App to the Zendesk marketplace and we would be very interested in getting your feedback on it. I couldn't find a direct message option here but feel free to get in touch at andreas@smileback.io. Hope you're interested in sharing some of your knowledge and ideas!

    Best,

    Andreas

    Could you please clarify how to test this out? I just set up Request customer satisfaction rating automation but there is no any button such as "send test email" on anything else. How can I make sure that it work as I expect?

    @Andrei,

    I suggest you:

    1. update the automation to look for the tag "test_ticket" so that it will only fire on a ticket you add that tag to.
    2. Create a test ticket with a non-agent account with an email you can access. Add the "test_ticket" tag.
    3. Update and Solve it as you normally would any ticket.
    4. Watch for the CSAT email!
    5. If it works, remove the "test_ticket" condition from your automation and you should be all set.

    Hope that helps!

    @Andrew J The Base64 encoded GIF in the update simply result is a invalid image place holder when viewed in Outlook.

     

    I ended up uploading another 1px x 1px PNG into the asset store and using that. 

     

    I also feel that I'm not making things simple on myself to get a URL of the asset image once uploaded. You get a template placeholder in the help centre, but it seems you can't use that in the email body for the notification automation. So the only why I have figured out how to get the URL is to actually publish a page that contains the template, then inspect the element in the browser to copy the image URL. I'm sure there must be a simpler way.

    I'm also struggling in getting the width of the columns (td element) to line up, so the images are nicely aligned are above the text.

  • Chris Swinney

    ok, resolved the alignment @Andrew J. There are soem issue with your HTML in that the TD and IMG element height and width should be specified in number only, i.e. "150", not "150px". I also tidied up the multiple tables and aligned the TD elements for better presentation. 

    The code is now:

    ```
    <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td height="20" width="150" align="center" style="font-size: 20px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="{{satisfaction.positive_rating_url}}"><img height="100" width="100" alt="Happy" src="https://URL/happy.png"></a></td><td height="20" width="150" align="center" style="font-size: 20px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="{{satisfaction.negative_rating_url}}"><img height="100" width="100" alt="Sad" src="https://URL/sad.png"></a></td></tr><tr><td style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px;"><span id="csat123" style="color:white;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</span><td style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px;"><span id="csat123" style="color:white;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</span></td></tr><tr><td align="center" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="{{satisfaction.positive_rating_url}}">Feeling fine!</a></td><td height="20" align="center" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px;"><span id="csat123" style="color:white;"></span><a href="{{satisfaction.negative_rating_url}}">Not so great</a></td></tr></table>
    <a href="{{satisfaction.positive_rating_url}}"><img src="https://URL/1px.png"></a>
    ```

    Having said this, this looks like an old way of doing thing, but I'm not sure what Zendesk or email client such as Outlook support. This is also terrible formatting

    Hello Chris,

    I think our current version has changed a little too.  What Outlook supports is a major issue, and alignment is very problematic.

    Would certainly be very glad if a better version was made. 

    The last 1px image is a pain because in Outlook with images not displayed, it show the full size image missing placeholder... defeats the purpose a bit.

    @Zendesk Is there a plan in the roadmap to fix this problem to make it work with outlook? (Disregard this comment, I made it work with Outlook O365)

    Hi Rasmus -

    Since this is custom code it is not something we would plan to undertake at the product level.

    Hi, and thanks for this!

     

    I did a bit of tweaking to the updated code, but now I see that there is an extra <td> that appears in the email itself, even though I thoroughly checked the code and there is no such <td>.

    Hello David, are you using my original code?  You may want to try Chris' code a few comments up.  My code is an old version and rather clunky.  It basically is only good as a starter guide now.

    Let me know how you get on.

    FWIW, one of my goals here was to try to work around Zendesk very poor handling of automated link followers that trigger the negative CSAT scores. Unfortunately, it hasn't really worked :(. As far as I know, Zendesk do not actually see this as a problem! However, I would suggest the the vast majority of our negative scores are actually incorrect (based on further customer interaction and the fact that they have never clicked on anything or were not even in the office at the time the score was recorded).
