Copy from Existing Survey
The Chisquares survey platform allows users to duplicate survey content from an existing survey into a new one. This feature simplifies survey creation by reusing predefined questions, consent forms, logic settings, and other components.
Steps to Copy from an Existing Survey
- Access Survey Design
To add questions from an existing survey to a survey that already contains questions, navigate to the Survey Design section under Data Collection in the left-hand menu. Click on the dropdown list next to Add New Item, then select Copy from Existing Survey to import additional questions. This allows you to reuse a previously created survey and modify it as needed, ensuring consistency while saving time in survey design.
