Visualizations in the Additional questions report

Once you’ve set up one or multiple Additional questions, your Additional questions report will automatically populate with graphs for each question.

Each “Scale,” “Select one option,” and “Select many options” question that you set up will have a dedicated bar graph. This graph will display each of your answer choices, along with the count and percentage of respondents who have selected that answer choice, with the most popular answer choice listed at the top. If you’ve included an “Other” answer choice, that will be listed at the bottom of the answer choice list.

Use the two drop-down filters at the top of the report to adjust the data shown based on specific time frames (ex. last quarter, last year, or a custom range), as well as based on any Trends you’ve created.

I added Additional questions, but I don’t see any graphs. What’s going on?

The Additional questions report will only generate graphs for scale, “Select one option,” and “Select many options” questions. If you’ve set up a free response question, this will not generate a graph in the report!

If you have set up one of the above question types and you’re still not seeing a graph, make sure that your questions are published.
