Sharing and Responses

Going live, sharing links, password protection, and viewing responses.

Last updated April 2026

Once your survey is built, you need to share it and collect responses. This guide covers publishing, sharing, and managing the response process.

Publishing Your Survey

When your survey is ready, publish it to make it available for responses. Publishing generates a shareable link that you can send to anyone.
Copy the link and share it through whatever channel works best for your team - direct message, team chat, or during a meeting.
Review your questions before publishing. While you can make changes after publishing, it is best to get the survey right before responses start coming in, since changes may affect how you interpret results.

Copy the survey link and share it through whatever channel works best for your team. Common options include:

  • Direct message or email
  • Team chat channel
  • Team meeting (share the link in the chat during the meeting)

When sharing, include a brief note about what the survey covers, how long it will take, and when you would like responses by. Giving a clear deadline improves response rates.

Anonymous Responses

Surveys in Manager Toolkit are anonymous by default. Respondents' identities are not recorded or displayed alongside their answers. This encourages honest feedback, particularly on sensitive topics like team dynamics, management style, or process concerns.

Password Protection

If you want to restrict who can access your survey, you can add password protection. When enabled, respondents must enter the password before they can view or complete the survey. Share the password alongside the survey link through your preferred communication channel.

This is useful when you want to ensure that only people within a specific group can respond.

Viewing Responses

As responses come in, you can view them from the survey detail page. Each response is timestamped so you can see when it was submitted. For rating questions, you will see summary statistics alongside individual responses. For text questions, each answer is displayed individually.

You can monitor response progress to see how many people have completed the survey. If participation is low, consider sending a reminder.

Set a clear deadline when sharing and send a reminder halfway through. Thank respondents for their time - even a brief message acknowledging their input shows that you value their feedback.
