Editing a survey’s end date

This article applies to all Diagnose users in the PI2 platform.

If you’d like to shorten or extend the length of an open survey, you can do so by editing that survey’s end date.

Note: This article only applies to surveys distributed via organization data import. (Surveys created via quick link have no end date and must be manually closed.)

Select Diagnose from the top navigation bar.
You will land on the Survey Center.
Select the relevant survey.
You will be brought to the survey’s “Analyze” tab.
Click the “More actions” button on the right-hand side. (You can also access this button from the "Review" or "Distribute" tabs.)
Select “Edit survey end date” from the dropdown options.
A pop-up will appear communicating the current survey end date.
Click the current end date.
Select a new date from the options.
Hit “Save changes” to confirm.
A success message will appear in the bottom right, confirming the survey end date has been updated.

FAQs

I don’t see an option to edit the survey end date. Why?

You can only edit the end date for surveys distributed via organization data import. (Surveys created via quick link have no end date and must be manually closed.)

I imported org data and still don’t see an “edit survey end date” option. Why?

The “edit survey end date” option is only available for “Live” or “Ready to Close” surveys.

If your survey is in “Draft” form, you still need to send the survey.
If your survey is “Closed,” it means you’re no longer accepting responses.

Is there a limit to how many times I can edit the survey end date?

No — feel free to extend the survey as needed if you’re unsatisfied with your current participation rate.

If you're shortening the survey length, we recommend doing so judiciously. We also recommend communicating the decision proactively to employees.
