   2. In the [Pick a group] dropdown, select the survey group you created earlier
   3. In the [Link text] field, give the link a descriptive name
   4. Tick the remaining two flags to [link to the ticket] and [create a pending request in the survey history]
   5. Click [Ok] to add the link to the Standard Response
3. Save the Standard Response
