It also makes it easy to identify spikes, declines, and longer-term trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hover over any point in the timeline to display a tooltip with the exact values for that time period.

This can be useful for monitoring a group of related surveys or getting an overview of all survey activity within a specific initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chart options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Name<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter a name for the chart. The name appears as the chart headline and should help users understand at a glance what the chart displays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use a specific name when your dashboard contains multiple Responses Overview Charts, such as <strong>Onboarding survey performance<\/strong> or <strong>Enterprise customer surveys<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Description<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Add an optional description to provide additional context. The description appears as a tooltip when users hover over the information icon next to the chart name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use it to explain:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Which surveys are included<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which audience or filters are applied<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The purpose of the chart<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How your team should interpret the metrics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Timeline grouping<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose the time interval used to group views and responses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Week<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quarter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Year<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Shorter intervals provide more detail, while longer intervals make broader trends easier to identify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Overwrite filters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By default, the chart uses the filters applied to the dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can overwrite these filters for an individual chart to analyze a specific subset of data. For example, you can limit the chart to a particular user segment, survey, response tag, or date range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This also allows you to add multiple Responses Overview Charts to the same dashboard and compare the performance of different surveys or audiences side by side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adjust size and position<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Responses Overview Chart can be freely resized and repositioned on your dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Increasing its width gives the timeline more space and makes individual periods easier to inspect. A more compact layout works well when the headline metrics are the primary focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best practices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Use a timeline grouping that matches your response volume. Daily grouping is useful for high-volume surveys or short campaigns, while weekly or monthly grouping usually provides a clearer view for surveys with fewer responses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Review views and responses together. An increase in responses may simply be caused by the survey being displayed more frequently, while a higher response rate indicates stronger engagement.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use the completion rate to identify surveys that users frequently start but do not finish. A low completion rate may indicate that the survey is too long, contains unclear questions, or appears at the wrong moment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When comparing surveys or audiences, use separate charts with consistent timeline groupings and date ranges. This makes differences in reach and engagement easier to interpret.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction The Responses Overview Chart gives you a quick snapshot of your surveys\u2019 reach, engagement, and performance.
