Decide if a respondent must answer the question to continue the survey.

Steps:

  1. Open the question editor for your custom question

  2. Go to Advanced Settings

  3. Toggle the Required setting on or off

What it does:

  • If enabled, the question must be answered before proceeding

  • If disabled, the question is optional and can be skipped.

Best practices

We recommend that open-ended questions to be NOT required to reduce survey fatigue and encourage higher-quality responses.
