FAQ
I don’t see participant contact information in the exported CSV. What happened?
For researchers who do not have the premium screening add-on, contact information (phone number and email address) will only be available in the exported CSV for participants with confirmed statuses. If you do have the premium screening add-on, contact information fields will populate in the CSV for any participant.
How will data be displayed when I’ve used multiple versions of the screener survey?
If there are multiple versions of the screener, there will be a column for each question for each version. If the first several screener columns are blank, it’s because the participant took a later version of the screener, and you just need to scroll to the right to find the screener question information for that participant.
What is the unique ID column?
Participant data export will include a column with a unique identifier. This is a randomly generated set of numbers and letters that allow researchers to connect participant data across User Interviews and various integrations — such as SurveyMonkey and Typeform.
Who can download participant data?
