Importing Questions

Overview

If you already have all your survey questions written in a Word document, a PDF, or an email body, you don't need to waste time creating them one by one in UpVoter. You can copy and paste them all at once thanks to our intelligent block-reading system.

1. How does bulk import work?

Inside your Management Panel, on the tab where you build the list of questions, you will find a button called Import Questions. Clicking it will open a blank text box.

Simply paste your handwritten questionnaire there and let UpVoter do the rest.

Question Separation

The system identifies where a question begins and ends by looking for blank lines. It is critical that you leave a line break in your document before starting the title of the next question.

Option Detection

The system looks underneath the main title for something resembling a list of answers to build the buttons. UpVoter understands almost any logical format:

Letters with parentheses or periods:
a) Red option
b. Blue option

Hyphens, dashes, and bullets:

Red option

Blue option

Classic numbers:
1) Red option

Blue option

2. Post-upload adjustments

Once the UpVoter scanner analyzes your text and generates the blocks, keep the following in mind:

By default, the entire imported structure will be pre-configured as classic "Single Choice" questions. If you wanted any particular question to be "Multiple Choice" (able to select several at once) or "Prioritize", simply edit that newly created block and change its format right there.

If one of your questions failed and wasn't imported, it is probably because you hadn't provided at least 2 viable answer options (obviously, it wouldn't make sense to present your audience with a questionnaire where the winning button is already decided). Double-check them.
