Completions widget

About the completions widget

The completions widget shows the most important participation metrics for your survey at a glance. It helps you quickly grasp how many people have started and completed your survey, which channels the responses came through, and which devices your target audience is answering on.

Where does the widget appear?

The widget is enabled by default and appears automatically below each survey in the dashboard as soon as the survey has been started.

Beyond that, it's accessible in all other views via the status menu in the top menu bar — through the colored status indicator (e.g. a green dot for “active”) to the left of the survey name.

Overview: the components of the completions widget

The widget is made up of several graphically displayed sections:

• Completions:
  Shows how many people have fully completed the survey.

  ★

  
  Example: “6,504 of 8,257 (78%)” means that 6,504 out of 8,257 participants completed the survey in full.
  

• 2 Weeks Trend:
  Presents the daily completions of the last 14 days as a bar chart.
  On mouseover, the exact number of completed surveys per day is shown.

• Channels:
  Shows which channels participation came through — e.g.:

  • Public Link: a general survey link, e.g. on a website or in a newsletter
  • Email invitation: a personalized participation link, sent directly to defined recipients
  • Social media publication: e.g. via Facebook, LinkedIn or X (formerly Twitter)
  • QR Code: e.g. on printed materials, posters or packaging

• Devices:
  Provides insight into the device types used:

  • Desktop
  • Tablet
  • Phone
• Quota fill level:
  If you use quotas in your survey, the current fill levels of the quotas are additionally shown in the widget.

How should the values be interpreted?

The number under “Completions” refers to the people who fully completed the survey, relative to those who started filling it out.
