My survey got blocked – what now?

Why is my survey blocked?

Respondents can flag a survey when they notice that something’s wrong with it. If a survey gets flagged 2 times or more, it gets blocked automatically. 

My survey got blocked – what now?

If your survey's been flagged and blocked, don’t fret. Here's why it might've happened and what you can do about it:


  1. Accessibility: Your survey could be inaccessible to respondents. Check your survey software’s privacy settings to make sure respondents are allowed to access it. Also, double-check that your survey link is correct and working.
  2. Completion link placement: Make sure your unique completion code link shows up on the last page of your survey AFTER respondents have submitted their answers.
  3. Invalid Code: Verify that the right code is displayed and that the completion link figures as a clickable hyperlink in your survey. You can double-check your completion link in the settings section of your survey on your dashboard. 

If your survey has been flagged, we will email you to explain why. Once you've fixed the issue, those flags will be cleared, and your survey will be good to go once again.
