In each survey, it is possible to add collaborators, who can only see the results, or do more to collaborate.

3 levels of access are possible for collaborators:

  • Can view

  • Can edit

  • Owner

The owner is a unique collaborator, defined at the creation of the survey, who is responsible for the content.
