Create a Survey


How do you collect real-time feedback from your participants with the Survey activity?

The Survey activity lets you collect feedback in real time so you can get a sense of what your participants think.

Create the Survey activity

To create the activity:
  1. Click Add a slide at the top left of your session.
  2. Select the Survey activity.

The activity is integrated into your presentation; it is saved automatically and appears as a slide in the navigation bar on the left. An editing panel appears automatically on the right-hand side of your screen.

Configure the activity

Customize the title and instructions

  1. By default, the title uses the activity name. To change it, delete the automatic title and enter your own question or a custom title.
  2. Add instructions to provide additional details about your activity. This option is optional.

Choose the activity format

By clicking Add a question, you have three options:

1- Multiple-choice or single-choice question
  1. Choose between "Multiple choice" or "Single choice."
  2. Enter your question or add a title.
  3. Define whether the answer is required.
  4. Add images to each option, or remove options.
  5. Continue adding options if necessary.
This format is ideal for asking participants to choose their opinion from several options.

2- Open-ended question
  1. Choose the question type.
  2. Add your question or statement.
  3. Define whether the answer is required.
This is the perfect option for requesting suggestions or ideas that may not have been covered by the previous formats.

3- Rating
  1. Select the question type.
  2. Enter your question or add a title.
  3. Define whether the answer is required.
  4. Assign a number of stars between 3 and 6.
