During the course of working on a project, you may be asked to fill in quick surveys along the way. Surveys are used by experiences and portals for many different reasons such as gathering self-assessments from you, obtaining more information about your background and knowledge, keeping projects on track, and more.

General

Notifications

When surveys are upcoming, due, or overdue, you will receive notifications and reminders to complete the surveys either from in-app or from your usual notification preferences including email. Clicking on these notifications will take you directly to the survey response page where you will be able to fill in and complete the survey.

You can manage your notification preferences as described here.

Timeline

When viewing one of your teams, you will be able to see the entire timeline of the team on the "Details" tab. This timeline will include any of the surveys which you will need to fill out.

Timing

All surveys are administered based on its timing settings, for which there are 3 options:

Before the project starts: if a team is scheduled to start a project on January 1, 2024, and a survey timing is "3 days before project start", you will receive the survey prompt on December 29, 2023.
After the project starts: if a team is scheduled to start a project on January 1, 2024, and end on January 31st, 2024, and a configured survey timing is "50% project completion", you will receive the survey prompt on January 15th, 2024.
After the project ends if a team is scheduled to end a project on January 31, 2024, and a configured survey timing is "1 day after project end", you will receive the survey prompt on February 1st 2024.

Blocking

If your surveys are configured by the experience or portal administrators to be required, you will be blocked from taking actions past when a survey appears in your team's timeline.

Here is a breakdown of the different survey timings and they actions they block when required:

Timing	Blocked actions
Before the project starts	Starting a project Any further actions
After the project starts	Any future milestones Creating a final submissions
After the project ends	None

All blocked actions apply only to an individual member of a team and not to the team as a whole. This means that once you as an individual respond to a require survey, you will be able to take the previously blocked action on behalf of the team while the rest of their team members may still have yet to reply to the survey.

If you find that a survey is long and requires most time to complete, you will be able to save your progress at any time while filling in a survey. Once saved, you can then revisit the survey reply and resume filling in your answers before fully submitting the survey.
