Here are the most common questions we receive on this topic. ### How do I export my survey responses? Click **Export to CSV** at the top of your account **Dashboard**, a survey's **Dashboard**, or the **Table** page. You can also choose **Export CSV** from a survey's **⋯** menu. Pick the survey and date range, then click **Email CSV**. The file is emailed to you, usually within the hour. To get a file straight away, open **Answers** and click **Download CSV**. It downloads the answers listed on the page, one row per answer. {% content-ref url="/pages/aGn4OwzNCvCllDvzod2Q" %} [Exporting Data to CSV](/tutorials/exporting-data-to-csv.md) {% endcontent-ref %} You can also set up automatic exports to Google Sheets using our integration: {% content-ref url="/pages/icQF9TZJIOLSjxOuvoRf" %} [Google Sheets](/integrations/google-sheets.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### My CSV export never arrived. What should I check? Exports can take up to an hour. Check spam for mail from `support@zigpoll.com`, and check the **Send To:** address in the export window. If **Settings → Data Export → Export Type** is set to **Include as attachment**, a large file may not fit in an email. Switch back to **Send a download link**. See [My CSV export never arrived](/tutorials/exporting-data-to-csv.md#my-csv-export-never-arrived). ### Why does my export say "No Results Found"? Nobody answered the selected survey in the date range you picked. Try a wider date range or check the survey selection. ### Why does my export have a different number of rows than my response count? Dashboard, Table, and Participants exports have one row per session, not per person. Someone who comes back later gets a second row with the same **Id**. Only answers inside your date range are included. See [How rows are organized](/tutorials/exporting-data-to-csv.md#how-rows-are-organized). ### How do multi-select answers appear in the CSV? In one cell, separated by commas, for example `Red, Blue`. Change the separator under **Settings → Data Export → Delimiter**. ### Can I export without personal data? Yes. On the **Table** page, untick the personal columns, click **Export to CSV**, and choose **Include selected columns only**. Scheduled exports can include or exclude selected columns too. ### Where did the Reports page go? It's now called **Table**, in the sidebar. A survey's **⋯** menu has **View Table**. ### Why does my answer count look higher than my response count? Zigpoll tracks a few separate numbers: * **Participants** -- the number of unique people who responded to your survey * **Responses** -- one per person taking your survey. This is what your plan limit applies to. * **Answers** -- the number of individual questions answered. A single response can produce multiple answers if your survey has multiple questions. This is why the answer count is often higher than the response and participant counts. {% content-ref url="/pages/-L\_EZO-k96\_WyGYdLJ1C" %} [How we calculate responses](/subscription-plans/how-we-calculate-responses.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### How do I delete test responses? Open **Answers**, click the response to expand it, then use the **⋯** menu in its top-right corner → **Delete Response**. The survey stays live. To remove several of one person's answers at once: 1. Open **Participants** and select the person. 2. Click **More Actions** → **Enable** under **Delete Responses**. 3. Tick the responses and click **Delete Selection**. **Delete Participant** on the same card removes the person and everything they submitted. Deletion is permanent. {% content-ref url="/pages/dGazIEd4az32WU62LUES" %} [Deleting Survey Responses](/tutorials/deleting-responses.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### Can I clear all responses but keep the survey? Yes. You do not need to duplicate or archive the survey. If the survey was created in the last 48 hours, choose **Reset Survey Data** from its **⋯** menu to delete every response to it and reset its charts in one step. After that window, delete the remaining responses per participant as described above. Deleting responses does not lower the number counted toward your monthly plan limit. ### Can I filter responses by date? Yes. Use the date range picker on the survey dashboard, the question cards, or the **Charts** page. The tiles at the very top of the dashboard always show lifetime totals. See [Analytics, AI, and Reporting](/analytics-ai-and-reporting.md). {% content-ref url="/pages/xIfRWjKlV8LQQzDo34iJ" %} [Analytics, AI, and Reporting](/analytics-ai-and-reporting.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### Can I see which products or customers are associated with a response? If you're using Zigpoll on Shopify, survey responses can be linked to order data and customer profiles. You can also pass participant metadata to enrich your response data with custom attributes. {% content-ref url="/pages/-LZv5HhSlUqm6srkUKqh" %} [Participant Metadata](/embed/participant-metadata.md) {% endcontent-ref %} {% content-ref url="/pages/-LrVNWozDJtjwyKgd2n3" %} [Survey Metadata](/embed/poll-metadata.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### Does Zigpoll have AI-powered analytics? Yes. Zigpoll includes AI-generated insights that automatically analyze your survey responses and surface key themes, sentiment, and actionable recommendations. {% content-ref url="/pages/xIfRWjKlV8LQQzDo34iJ" %} [Analytics, AI, and Reporting](/analytics-ai-and-reporting.md) {% endcontent-ref %} {% hint style="info" %} Need help with a specific reporting question?

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.zigpoll.com/faq/data-reporting-and-exports.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
