2. Add or Modify Questions and Skip Logic
There are a ton of question types to choose from, plus additional customization options like consent/legal modules, response piping, randomization, skip logic, and more. See HERE for more information.
- In the top field of the builder, rename your study to something recognizable.
- To create a page that shows multiple questions at once, add a Multi-Question: Single Page question.
- Select Add Questions+ to add additional questions to your study, or click into individual questions to made modifications. You can also duplicate questions and select to "Insert new below" by clicking on the ellipses (...) in the upper right corner of any question box.
- Note: you can compress the survey using the arrow in the upper right corner of the builder for easy review of all questions and logic.
- Customize your survey logic using skip logic, randomization of questions or response options, piping of responses and/or attributes, and more.
For more information about our survey questions, logic, etc. please see the below:
Marking a Question as Required
Toggle Required on or off at the top of each question card. Required questions disallow your users to skip ahead in the study.
Drag to Change the Order of Questions
Click on the question number to the left of each question module and drag and drop it to the desired position in your study.
Adding Survey Translations
To offer translated versions of the survey click the globe icon next to the "Add Question" button at the top of the Study Editor. This will add a new "Language" section to the bottom of the survey where you can select the languages you want the survey to be available in, download a CSV to add the translations to, and upload the completed translation file. If a survey has more than one language, respondents will see a language drop down when taking the survey.
3. Audience & Response Settings
Once you've finished building the survey, head to the Audience tab.
- Select your delivery mechanism:
- Long-Form surveys are delivered by a link by default (which can be sent through your email delivery or SMS delivery tools, linked to a Sprig In-Product Survey, and more).
- You can choose to deliver the survey through a User Interviews panel through Sprig's pre-built integration.
- You can also generate a QR code directly from Sprig for survey delivery (for example, during events, in-person meetings, etc.)
For more information, see Delivering Long-Form Surveys.
- Set how many responses you want to collect. You can select response collection:
- Until a specific number
- Until a specified date
- Ongoing
4. Survey Design
Sprig offers two different experiences when it comes to survey design:
- Sprig Standard Design
- Conversational UI
You can configure the design on a per-study basis. For more information, see Conversational Surveys.
Once you’ve finished customizing Audience and Design settings, you can preview your survey to make sure it looks exactly how you’d like.
Note: Existing color and logo configurations that are set up in the Sprig dashboard for In-Product Surveys will be automatically applied to Long-Form Surveys.
