Review the main survey settings
Understand the purpose of the survey settings tabs and the choices that affect access, feedback, and reporting.
Screenshots from the original Surveylet guide illustrate the controls below. Layouts and labels may vary with your survey configuration. Select an image or “View full size” to open it in a new tab.
Find the settings
Click the survey title in My Delphi Surveys to open Survey Settings. Options depend on your account and the question types in use.
| Tab | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Survey Details | Participant group, administrator group, privacy, consensus method, public access, response limit, testing, and languages. |
| Consensus | Consensus labels, change alerts, and RAND/UCLA options. Question-level settings still need review. |
| Statistics | Enable statistical measures and decide whether they are visible to administrators, participants, or both. |
| Display Settings | Navigation, button labels, feedback presentation, banner, progress, chat, and style sheet. |
| Survey Access | Select the registration or direct-access links you will distribute. |
| Responses Used | Review the response-usage log, including records that were subsequently deleted. |
| External Metrics | Optional external KPI data used by advanced analytics. |
Configure before collecting data
- Confirm the participant group and privacy level.
- Choose the consensus method and required statistics.
- Review question and matrix-column consensus settings; do not assume a survey default is your intended rule.
- Configure public access only if your recruitment plan needs it.
- Set a response limit, if needed, to allocate the account’s available allowance across projects.
- Check the footer, progress calculation, languages, and feedback permissions.

What settings do not do
A response limit controls access for new respondents; it is not a consensus threshold. A minimum-answer threshold controls when a question’s feedback becomes visible; it does not start a new round. A survey round preserves response data at a point in the study; it is not a version of the questionnaire design.
