Create a Custom Survey (as a Manager)

This article will outline how to create and manage a custom survey as a manager from the Segment level.

Before starting, a more general description of the Custom Survey feature can be found here: Introduction to Custom Surveys. 

Who can manage Segment Custom Surveys?

Both administrators and managers (that have access to the segment from where the custom surveys was created) are able to manage custom surveys created on Segment level. However, results may still be visible in other segments depending on the settings and how many users that have answered.

For managers to be able to manage custom surveys, it needs to be enabled by an administrator.

Add a new Segment Custom Survey

1. In the left side menu navigate to “Segment”.
   In the segment selector, choose a segment from where you will create the custom survey. If you only have access to one segment, it will be selected by default.
2. Press "Add new survey"

Creation of a custom survey consist of three steps, each one of them are described below. You can navigate between these steps by clicking on "Previous" and "Continue" on the bottom of the page. 

1. Let's get started

1. Add a Survey title (name) for the survey. 
2. By default, the survey will target the entire organization. If this is correct, do not select a target group. However, if you want to send the survey to a specific part of the organization, select the appropriate segments.
3. When targeting specific segments, users that belongs to any of them will receive the custom survey. However, these users may also be part of other segments in other attributes, for instance gender segments. This will mean that the gender segment reports will also be updated with the generated data. If that is not desired, use "Exclude data from Segments" and select the gender segments in this case. 
   
   

   If no data should be shown in any other segments than the selected target group (selected in step 2 above), check the box “Exclude all segments except the targeted ones”.

4. Once finished, press "Continue". Note that you will not be able to continue without adding a Survey Title to your custom survey.

2. Preview Survey Questions

In this section you will create and manage all the questions for the custom survey. 

1. Press "Add question".
2. Choose one of the 4 question types (1-5, Multiple Choice, Text, and NPS).
3. Add the appropriate information to the question and press "Add Question".
4. Repeat step 1-3 and add all the questions you want to.
5. In the "Questions" section you can also overview, edit, or alter the order of all the questions.
6.  Note that there also is a "Translations" section where you are given the opportunity to translate your questions. Note that the questions are accessible per question type. Select the language you wish to add translations for, continue by adding your translation for each question.  '
   
7. When you are done adding and managing your questions, press "Continue".

3. Data Collection settings

In this last step you will select when the custom survey starts, ends and how results should be displayed.

1. Select a start date and duration for your custom survey. The end date will be added automatically based on the selected start date and duration. Note that it is not possible to change the duration after the survey has started.
2. If desired, press Customize invite to change the Invite e-mail or Reminder e-mails that are sent. 
3. Press the "Launch"-button when ready. If not, you can always save your custom survey as a draft an by clicking on the "Save as Draft"-button in the top right corner.
