Task Types

You can now choose between three (3) different task types: Task, Single Choice, or Multiple Choice. Single and Multiple choice task types are great for simple rankings, choices, and for asking follow up questions after a standard task (e.g. after having them perform a task in a prototype or on your website). You can learn more in this help article.

Tasks: Keep with previous task

Sometimes it can be helpful to randomise your tasks in an unmoderated study to ensure the order of your tasks doesn't influence your results. However, there may still be instances where you want to keep some of the tasks grouped in a specific order, e.g. the two tasks need to be completed in sequence or you want to ask some follow up questions from the previous tasks. The "Keep with previous" function allows you to do that and you can read more about it here.

Public Links for Findings


Findings (formerly known as Highlights) are most often collected together and shared in Reels. However, sometimes a single finding is all you want to share with your stakeholders. You can now share individual findings using Public Links. Public Links for Findings can be generated either from the dashboard directly or within the player. You can learn more about both options in this help article.
