Feedback views are pre-configured filters and layouts that let you customize how you view and analyze feedback. Whether you're monitoring real-time responses or diving deep into data for detailed insights, feedback views support a variety of use cases to enhance your workflow and analytics experience.
View types
List view
The list view displays responses in a real-time stream format, with the latest response appearing at the top. It provides a quick and easy way to see the most important details for each response at a glance.
Hover for details - Hover over specific elements to view additional information without leaving the page.
Expand for full details - Click on any response to open a popup modal with complete details.
This layout is ideal for situations where you need to stay updated with incoming feedback or want to review responses quickly without diving into granular data.
Table view
The table view gives you precise control over the data you see, offering options to customize column order, visibility, and how responses are displayed. This flexibility makes it easy to prepare data for CSV exports exactly the way you want, eliminating extra steps after exporting.
Within the table view layout, you can choose to display answers by rows or columns:
Answers by rows
In this layout, each row represents an individual answer along with all related details.
When to use the answers by rows layout:
To combine answers from multiple surveys in one view.
To focus on specific answers across surveys or questions.
To prepare datasets for comparative analysis when working with diverse survey types.
Answers by columns
In this layout, each row represents an individual response, with answers to different questions displayed as columns.
The answer by column layout requires you to select a single survey because including multiple surveys would result in too many columns, making the view difficult to manage.
When to use the answers by columns layout:
