Surveys

Surveys lets you build a questionnaire and decide who answers: members with their names attached, members anonymously, or anyone with the link. Share it by link, QR code, or notification, then read results as summaries or one response at a time. Internal surveys allow one response per member, even when anonymous.

What it covers

Module capabilities

Administrator setup

Before your department relies on it

  1. 1

    Decide on anonymity before sharing; audience and anonymity lock once anyone responds.

  2. 2

    Test conditional questions with a draft.

  3. 3

    Set a close date so results are final.

  4. 4

    Remember public surveys cannot limit people to one response.

  5. 5

    Follow up manually; surveys do not send automatic reminders.

  6. 6

    Duplicate a survey when you need a different audience.

Common questions

Answers before you get stuck

Can the public answer a survey?

Yes. Public surveys work for anyone with the link, with no account.

Are anonymous answers really anonymous?

Anonymous responses are stored with no user attached. The survey still prevents a member from answering twice.

Can I change a survey after responses arrive?

The audience and anonymity lock once anyone responds. Duplicate the survey to change them.
