Customizing a Frontline Feedback Project

About Customizing a Frontline Feedback Project

Once you’ve created your Frontline Feedback project, you can customize it to fit your organization’s needs. The Settings tab controls the customization options for your Frontline Feedback project. Here, you can edit what the feedback form looks like, create custom request statuses, and share the project with your users. Information about each setting is below.

Feedback Form

The Feedback form section allows you to customize the default text users will see when they fill out the Frontline Feedback project.

1. The Voting setting allows users to upvote existing feedback. You can enable or disable this at any time.
2. The Anonymous submission setting allows users to submit anonymous feedback requests and comments on requests.
3. Enter the question you want your users to answer. This is the question you’re using to solicit feedback from your employees and will appear at the top of the Feedback form. There is a 200 character limit for this field.
4. Enter any instructions for your users to consider before submitting their feedback. This text will appear above the search bar in the Feedback form. There is a 200 character limit for this field.
5. Select any custom fields you want to appear as filters on your feedback overview table.

Sharing

The Sharing settings allow you to determine who in your license can access the Frontline Feedback project. You can also determine the level of access users will have within the project.

Link Sharing

Link sharing can be used to quickly give access to all users in your Qualtrics license at once. You can determine whether users can contribute to or only view the submitted feedback.

1. Turn on Enable Link Sharing.
   
2. Copy the provided link and send to anyone in your license who needs access.
   Qtip: When users click this link, they’ll be prompted to login with their Qualtrics credentials. Only users within your license will be able to access the project.
3. Choose the level of access your users will have. Select Read only to provide view-only access. Select Contributor to allow users to submit new feedback and interact with existing feedback.

Note, enabling link sharing will share the project with all users in your license and they will be able to access the project from their Projects Page in addition to the link you provide.

Individual Sharing

You may individually manage who has access to your project. When giving access to individuals, you can also determine the level of access each person has.

1. Enter the name or email address of the user you’d like to give access to. As you type, you’ll be given a list of users in your organization to select. You may enter multiple users in this field at a time.
   
2. Select the role the users will have. You can assign individuals to different roles.
   • • Moderator: Users can edit and delete all feedback and comments within the project, as well as contribute their own feedback.
     • Read only: Users will be able to read existing feedback and view comparisons, but not submit feedback of their own.
     • Contributor: Users will be able to interact with existing feedback and submit their own feedback, as well as create and manage their own collections and comparisons. Users can also edit feedback clients, tags, assignee, and status.
     • Owner: Users will be able to manage all feedback for the project, as well as any project settings.
   Qtip: All user roles have the ability to manage subscriptions for their account.
3. Click Share.

Once you’ve shared the project with individual users, you can manage their access in the Permissions section.

In this section, you can perform the following tasks:

1. Use the Display Name, User, and Permission fields to filter for specific users.
   Qtip: If the Display Name for a user is blank, this means they have not yet accessed the Frontline Feedback project.
2. Click the dropdown in the Permission column to change the user’s level of access.
3. Click the trash can icon next to a user to remove them from the project.

Custom Fields

When submitting a feedback request, the person submitting the feedback will be able to select values for the custom fields. You can then use this field to filter your feedback requests when filter

The Tags section contains all of the tags that users have added to feedback requests in your project. From this tab, you can delete tags from your project.
