Participants & access · Administrator

Give administrators and analysts the right access

Separate survey management from guest analysis and choose whether analysts may view participant identities.

Administrator groups

Administrator group membership provides administrative access. The survey’s administrator group determines who can manage that study. Check the account’s licensed administrator allowance before adding another administrator.

Do not place ordinary panelists in an administrator group merely to let them answer questions. They only need membership in the survey’s participant group.

Guest analysts

The documented evaluator workflow uses administrator membership together with a guest analyst group. Guest analysts can evaluate permitted survey data without changing surveys or account settings.

GroupPurpose
Guest Analysts - Full AccessAllows analysis with participant identification where the survey privacy settings permit it.
Guest Analysts - Limited AccessAllows analysis without identifying participants, including when a survey is Low or Medium privacy.

After assigning an analyst, check their access using that account. Verify the intended surveys, available reports, and identity displays before sharing data.

Review access at project milestones

Review access when the project begins, when an analyst joins, and when the study ends. Use individual credentials, keep email verification enabled where appropriate, and remove administrative access when it is no longer needed.

Detailed instructions: Survey Evaluators

Survey evaluators are special groups. They will have the right to login to Surveylet with a username and password and evaluate specific surveys. They do not have rights to administer surveys or change your account settings. They can simply run evaluations on your the data you collected to your surveys.
To designate someone as as Survey Evaluator, you will need to add this person to both the Administrators group, and one of the Survey Evaluators groups.  If you want yours evaluators to be able to identify your panelists, you add them to the "Guest Analysts - Full Access" group. If you want to prevent them from being able to identify your panelists in your surveys, then add them to the "Guest Analysts - Limited Access" group. Members of the "Guest Analysts - Limited Access" group will not be able to identify panelists even if you as an admin can (the survey's Privacy Level is set to Medium or Low).
