As a survey admin or manager with administrative permissions, you will have the chance of sending invitations and reminders to the members of your survey using the Monitoring section.


If you want to know more of accesses and permissions, please check this article.


You can send invitations and reminders via email, SMS and/or WhatsApp whenever you need it. By default, the platform will only send invitations to those users whose status is Not Invited and only send reminders to those whose status is Pending and In Progress.
