Changing pulse questions

Reword or switch off library questions, and add your own.

Who can use this: Owners and admins, or anyone with the Surveys permission.

The pulse draws from a library of 50 research-based questions, 2 to 4 for each sub-metric. You can change it under Manage → Surveys → Pulse → Question library.

The question library

Reword a question#

Click the pencil next to a question, change the wording, and save. It's marked Reworded, and its results continue from before. Click the restore icon to go back to the original wording.

Switch a question off#

Use the switch next to it. It stops being asked; past answers stay in results. Each metric keeps at least one question switched on, so no score quietly disappears.

Add your own#

  1. Click Add a question.
  2. Write a statement people agree or disagree with, such as "I have what I need to do my job well."
  3. Pick the Metric and Sub-metric it counts toward.
  4. If agreeing is a bad sign, like "I often feel overwhelmed", turn on Agreeing is a bad sign so Strongly agree scores low.
  5. Save. It's marked Custom.
