Hi at end of survey i deleted question to ensure people who went to survey page knew it as closed and to share further information about what next. I can no longer download the the responses and or report. Where is the survey data? Thanks Chris ---

Hey Chris! Can you elaborate on your question a bit? Once your survey is closed or deleted, you can no longer receive any responses for that survey. Similarly a deleted question in a survey will not fetch any response. Would you please make sure your survey is up & running? Also, the closed surveys can be directly accessed from your survey dashboard. You can restore it and access the survey results if you wish. ---

Hi Had a survey run through July Had 400 plus responses. I thought I would be smart and delete the questions rather than close it so I could communicate potential respondees what is happening. However After I deleted every question i now cant download those answered that had already been submitted The summary shows 422 responses but when look at results say need to create questions I am happy for you to llok in at the backend ANy help appreciated Chris ---

Hi Chris, Deleting a question from the survey would lead having the responses attached to it to be deleted as well ☹ Could you help us with the email id & the survey name that you are referring to, we will perform few checks from the backend to see if we can help in anyway 🙂 ---
