Create a survey

Administrators, site owners, and core team members can create surveys for a site and share them with groups (teams), the organization, or the public.

Choose a survey template

To create a survey, follow these steps:

  1. Open a site in edit mode.
  2. Click the second drop-down menu in the edit navigation bar and click Feedback.
  3. Choose a template or click Browse Templates to view survey templates created by members of your ArcGIS Online organization, Esri, or the public.
  4. When survey activation is complete, the survey editor opens automatically and you can begin configuring the survey design. Use the content details page to update the survey's name, description, and thumbnail.

Publish a survey

A new survey is saved as a draft. This means that the survey is not open to submissions until it has been published. While saved as a draft, only the survey owner can modify the survey's questions and appearance.

  1. On the survey's layout editor, click Publish.
  2. Confirm that you want to publish the survey by clicking Publish after the schema message.
  3. After publishing a survey for the first time, the survey owner can grant view or edit access to the survey and its results.
