FAQs

  • A green dot means the translated survey is live and fully active for end users.
  • A yellow dot means the translation is saved but not yet live, requiring publishing to take effect.
The sampling rate determines what percentage of eligible users see the survey.
  • Low sampling rate (e.g., 10%) → Only a small fraction of users receive the survey, reducing responses but avoiding survey fatigue.
  • High sampling rate (e.g., 100%) → Every eligible user sees the survey, maximizing responses but increasing exposure.
No, translations do not auto-update when the original survey content changes. You must manually retranslate or update each language version.
If a user’s language isn’t translated, they will see the default base language of the survey.
