About this task

You can edit a survey even after it has been distributed, with the following results.
  • Added questions are available only on surveys that are distributed after this change.
  • Changes to existing questions are immediately available to users before the survey is submitted or during the retake period. This includes changes to the answers, such as additional choices or changes to the data type.
  • Deleted questions are also deleted from the distributed surveys in user queues.
Note: You can only edit a survey that has the same application scope as that of your current session.

  4. Point to the menu icon in the survey header bar, and select Save or Save and Publish.
