Once you have added all the elements to your survey and adjusted the look and feel as needed, preview the survey again to check that it works and looks as you want it to. Make any necessary changes before you publish it.
When you are ready, select Publish. At this point, you may want to use the Expert Review by selecting View recommendations. This provides suggestions for improving the survey. Once you have made any further changes, select Publish, then select Publish again.
Once your survey is published, you will be provided with an anonymous link that you can use to distribute it. You can also find several other ways to share your survey in the Distributions section of Qualtrics. These distribution methods are listed below. Select a method to learn more:
If you know who you want to send your survey to in advance, you can also create a contact list to distribute your survey invitations. The list should include participants’ names, email addresses and any other relevant information, and can be created manually or by importing contact details. You do not have to create a contact list, but it can make survey distribution easier. It also allows information to be added to a participant’s responses as embedded data. For information on creating a contact list, see the contacts page on the Qualtrics support site.
Once you have distributed your survey and received all your responses, you will need to analyse your data. This is not covered in detail here, but you can either analyse your data in Qualtrics or export it to another program for analysis. Exporting the data is usually required for more in-depth analysis. To export your data, go to the Data & Analysis tab, select Export & Import, choose Export… and then select your preferred file format.
