Adding the Qualtrics App to a Team

Before you can distribute a survey to a team, you need to add the app to the team you want to survey. If you have not added the app to any teams, you will see the below message in your Qualtrics app:the message at the top of the qualtrics app if it has not been added to any teams yet

For a guide on how to add an app to a team, check out this Microsoft Teams support page. You can also click the Add new Team link above the team selection dropdown to add the app to a team.

Distributing a Survey in Microsoft Teams

After building your survey in Qualtrics and downloading the app to your Microsoft Teams channel, you’re ready to distribute your survey.

Qtip: You can distribute any survey type using this method. However, this distribution method acts as the anonymous link, meaning no information about the respondent other than their IP address is saved with their response. If you would like to run an EX project in Microsoft Teams, make sure you include an authenticator to associate surveys responses to correct participants.

Distributing via a Team Channel
