All Zoho Survey tables explained
Introduction
Hey everyone! Sometimes, deciphering the structure and meaning of data in Zoho
Analytics, especially when Zoho’s native syncs and integrations are
activated, can be quite challenging. That’s why I’ve put together an
overview, not only to aid myself but also to assist others in navigating
through these complexities.
I hope that this article is helpful and would be pleased to receive additions and corrections (if there are still errors despite my checking).
If you want to see prettier tables, have a look here :D
Collectors
The table plays an important role in the administration of surveys, especially when using the multi-collector feature. This feature makes it possible to distribute a survey to different groups and then filter the results by group.
What is a collector?
A collector is basically a way to distribute a single survey in different ways. Normally a survey is shared via a single link, but with this feature separate links can be created for different groups. This makes it easier to filter and analyze responses by group. In addition, numerous settings such as restrictions, quotas, visibility and hash URLs can be set separately for each collector.
A practical example illustrates this: Suppose you are organizing a workshop for many different customers from different companies and want to get feedback from the participants. Instead of creating separate surveys per company, you can create a single survey and send it to each participant using multi-collectors. This way, all incoming responses are already automatically segmented by company without participants having to provide information manually.
The Collectors table therefore makes it easier for you to organize survey activities.
Table structure
| Column name | Data type | Explanation | Table relationships | Values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ID | Number | Primary key | Respondents.Collector ID | |

| Survey ID | Text | Reference to the survey to which this collector belongs | Surveys.ID | |
| Status | Text | Indicates whether the collector is still accepting submissions or is already closed. | open, closed | |
| Type | Text | Specifies whether the collector is public or private. If a survey is set as private, it can only be opened by logged-in Zoho users. | public, private | |
| Offline URL | Text | Zoho Survey offers the option of completing surveys offline. This
means that responses can be received even without an Internet connection
and can be viewed and uploaded after authentication. Further
information can be found here: https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/kb/survey/launch/offline-survey/articles/offline-surveys
Attention: Even if this function is deactivated, a URL is displayed here. If this is opened, a corresponding message appears stating that it cannot be accessed. |

Hint
If a survey is missing,
please check the data source settings. Go to the Zoho Survey data source
and select ‘Edit setup’. There you can select the desired or missing
table. If the option
Automatically import new surveys is selected, there should normally be no missing data!Pages
The table contains all the information about the pages in the survey. Normally, this table should not play a major role in evaluations, unless you want to use the page title for segmentation.

URL parameters can be configured in the editor under Advanced settings. If data has been transferred in a survey link and a response has been submitted, this data is saved here.
In addition, URL parameters can also be used as response restrictions, whereby these can be set per collector. This means that only one submission is permitted per unique URL parameter value.
These parameters are not visible in the editor under Advanced settings, but are also saved in this table.
