Step-by-Step

Activating your survey allows you to begin collecting survey responses. By default, any survey you create is inactive. This keeps respondents from taking the survey before it is finished and ensures that you won’t collect any invalid data or release an unfinished survey.

Do not activate your survey until you are ready to collect responses.

Activate your Survey

  1. On the My Surveys page, select the checkbox to the left of the survey name.

    The box will turn green.
  2. On the Distribute Survey page, click Activate your survey to collect responses.

    The anonymous survey link will then be available to you.
Deactivate your Survey

  1. On the My Surveys page, select the green checkbox to the left of the survey name.
  2. To allow those with partial responses more time to complete the survey, clear the Close all active survey sessions option.
  3. Type close in the box provided, and then click Deactivate Survey.
