Hello,

I have an Inquisit webscript (https://mili2nd.co/yclb) that I'm trying to get to run from Sona (where participants sign up to a study) and once complete, the study should redirect back to Sona at the end to give students credits. As far as I can see both are set up correctly but I get error messages when I run it. It links to Inquisit fine but at the end of the study I get an error message when it is supposed to go back to Sona. The error message says 'Server Error - 404 file or directory not found'. 
Is there a way that you could check that everything looks OK from the Inquisit side and then I'll know it is a Sona issue? 

Thank you,
Eimear

I assume you followed the instructions on the SONA help page to set this up (cf. https://www.sona-systems.com/help/inquisit.aspx ). While not wrong per se, the setup recommended there is more complicated and fragile than it needs to be. The best way to set this up is:

- Give https://mili2nd.co/yclb?survey_code=%SURVEY_CODE% as the link to your Inquisit experiment in SONA.
- Then, in your Inquisit Web experiment's settings, indicate survey_code as the name of the URL parameter Inquisit should obtain the subject ID from.
- Finally, enter only https://strath-psych.sona-systems.com/webstudy_credit.aspx?experiment_id=148&credit_token=f6290cb286034a63bc7cfc88e4c752de as the URL to redirect to in your Inquisit Web experiment's settings, the survey_code parameter will be appended automatically when Inquisit redirects to SONA for crediting.

Thanks for that Dave - Yes, I had initially been following the other guidelines on the SONA help page but everything seems to be working now with the ones you sent. 
Best wishes,
