Can users go back to edit the survey after launching a study unintentionally?

Modified on Tue, 2 Apr, 2024 at 7:05 AM

In case a user accidentally launched a study even if they are not done with the programming, there are two options that users can do depending on how much work they have done on the programming the survey:


Option 1: When you are almost done with programming the study


1.  On the Project Directory page, select your project Dashboard. On the Management Stats Page click Edit Quotas on the upper right corner.





2. OR you could also go to the Project Directory, then click More on the project card, and then choose Edit Live Project



3.  Once you've made all the changes, you can click the Preview button on the top right to save and preview the changes that you've. Then click the Republish on the left side of the platform. 




Please note that there are some limitations when using this option:

  • On the Question Builder, users cannot edit option values, rearrange existing options, or remove options in a live study
  • On the Overview page, users cannot edit the project URL anymore in a live study 
  • Thus it is better to make the changes using below Option 2: When you just started creating the study, and there are a lot more changes to be made


Option 2: When you just started creating the study, and there are a lot more changes to be made


1. Go back to the Project Directory, then click More on the project card, and then choose Duplicate Project. The duplicated project will serve as your new study and continue with the programming. 




2. You can then Archive the previous study by clicking More then Archive Project. 

Please note that if you choose this option, please inform the Nexxt team to give you another credit for launching a new study.
