Results & exports

Reading the results dashboard

The web dashboard shows per-question charts matched to question type, an export to CSV, and a per-question filter for drilling into specific responses.

Updated

Every published survey gets a web dashboard. It opens in a browser, not in Slack, and you sign in with the Slack account that installed Surveys. The link is in the App Home for the survey and in the confirmation modal you saw when you submitted.

What you see at the top

The header shows the survey title, the audience it went to, the response count, and the timestamp of the most recent response. The count updates on page reload. The dashboard is meant to be read as a snapshot, not watched live.

Per-question charts

Each question on the survey gets its own chart, sized to the question type:

  • Free text answers come as a scrollable list, in response order.
  • Single-select and yes/no answers as horizontal bar charts with counts and percentages.
  • Multi-select answers as a horizontal bar chart with percentages calculated against the number of respondents (not the number of selections).
  • NPS answers as the standard NPS curve plus the calculated score.
  • 5-point agree/disagree as a five-segment stacked bar with the mean score underneath.

Hover any bar to see the underlying count. Click the chart to open the per-question detail view, where you can filter by response. (“Show me only the people who picked Option A on Q3.”)

Anonymous surveys

For an anonymous survey, the dashboard shows aggregate counts only. No names appear on any chart, and the per-respondent CSV is unavailable. Below three respondents, the dashboard hides results entirely as a privacy guardrail. See How anonymity works for the full rules.

Export to CSV

The Export button at the top right downloads the full response set as a CSV. One row per response, one column per question. Open it in a spreadsheet for quick pivots, or load it into pandas or R if you want to do proper analysis. For the column shapes and quoting rules, see Exporting survey results to CSV.

Recurring surveys

A recurring survey shows each run as its own result set, grouped under the recurring series on the dashboard. Click the series to see a timeline of past runs with their response counts. Click any run to open its detail view.
