Add Participants

Let's learn how we can add users to the survey or quiz created using workplace chatbot. If you have created the survey using the workplace chat interface, the participants will be added once you provide the workplace group id or upload the excel file with user emails.
If the survey is not scheduled or requires approval, participants are instantly notified about the survey.

How to Invite users to Survey/Quiz?

Customize Invitation & Completion Message

In this section, you can customize the invitation message & completion message for each survey/quiz. Just click on Edit link, write your message and click on Save. If you do not wish to change the message you can use the default message that comes for each survey/quiz.

You can add placeholder in the message which will be replaced with user name and survey title while sending the message.

  • ${userName} - Replaced with the user name who is receiving the invitation message
  • ${title} - Replaced with the survey name in the invitation message
NOTE: Completion message does not support the ${userName} placeholder variable.
