      Viewing and sharing survey results

      Survey results are available in CSV format for surveys that have ended

      Results are available only from surveys that have ended. You can't view results from live surveys, but you can download a participation report for them.

      To access a survey's results, click on the name of a survey that has ended, or select View results from the right-side menu.

      Analyzing the results

      Heatmap

      The heatmap shows a color-coded overview of each team's average ratings across the survey.

      You can see the number of responses from a particular team by hovering your mouse on the row.

      The scores are aggregated on all levels of the team hierarchy. You can expand and collapse teams to view just the scores you're interested in.survey-results-team-controls

      The main overview shows average scores across all the questions in a topic. You can expand the topics to see a more detailed breakdown by each question.

      Publishing the results

      After the survey ends, the results are first available only to the survey creator and admins. This allows you to review them before sharing them with your team.

      ❌ If the results contain sensitive or offensive comments that should be removed, contact Swarmia to get them removed.

      When you're ready to show the results to others, select Publish results in the top-right corner. Everyone in your Swarmia organization will get access to the results. You'll also get a link to share them easily with the teams.

      Downloading the results

      You can also export the results to use them elsewhere. Just click the Download survey results button in the top-right corner.
