Create a Page in your survey

Display a series of questions on one page to make completing your survey easier for participants.

Participants' answers to questions on a page are not saved until they click the Next button to proceed.

Pages are numbered sequentially based on their position in the Table of Contents and are automatically updated when you delete or move a page. Page numbers are not visible to survey participants or when you print your survey.

  2. In the Table of Contents, click the Page element.
    Result: The Edit Pane appears.
  3. Optional: Edit the Page name.
    Your page name:
