Restricting Survey Availability | XM Community
Skip to main content
Is there a way to restrict a survey's availability by setting a start/end date and time?

We have a need to place boundaries on when a survey can be answered.

For example, setting the surveys to open at 9:00 am Monday (Aug 29) and close at noon on Friday (Nov 2).



Manually activating and closing a survey is not ideal as someone will forget to turn the survey off to stop data collection.
You can control this by selecting survey activity dates.

hello @Kaiiak ,

In Survey options, there is a section called survey terminations in which you can set the start and end date.

Below image help you understand well:!
@PraDeepKotian_Ugam that is exactly what I'm looking for! Thanks for the help!
@Kaiiak Don't make the same mistake I did when using the survey expiration option! I used this on a survey that I open and close regularly but forgot to change the expiration date when I mailed the survey out again! :s It was an easy mistake to fix but my inbox was flooded with complaints!
@VirginiaM Thanks for sharing your experience! I will vigilantly keep an eye on those dates.
