All Zoho Survey tables explained

All Zoho Survey tables explained



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

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.

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.

Column name Data type Explanation Table relationships Values
ID Number Primary key Respondents.Collector ID
Name Text Name of the collector

Unique URL Text The public URL where the survey can be accessed

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.


Offline Enabled Boolean (DecisionBox) Indicates whether the offline feature is activated or not.
  • Yes
  • No
Published Date Date + Time Time at which the Collector was published.

Cut Off Date Date Time at which the collector should be closed (this is the deadline specified in the settings).If a collector was closed manually, the date is not entered here (unfortunately this cannot be found anywhere else).

Multiple Response Text This column is always empty, even the support team couldn’t help me here. It looks as if information on restrictions is stored here (Editor 🡆 Publish 🡆 Restrictions 🡆 Response Restriction).

This table stores basic information about a survey.

Enable Back Text Indicates whether the respondent can return to the previous page or whether the button is not displayed.

Next Button Text The text that was defined in the settings for the button to go to the next page

Group ID Number Reference to the department in which the survey was created Departments.ID
Name Text Survey name

Type Text As a rule, the value “survey” is available here. However, if scores have been configured under Editor 🡆 Advanced settings, the value scoring is available instead.

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!

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.

Also could we also request a feature where you can specify a Holiday as hours, i.e it could be that the company is on a 1/2 day due to a holiday or when it is Eid in the UAE and they are only allowed to work restricted hours so we need the calendar to be flexible to allow for this.

I haven't been able to find any documentation related to this.  Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.

Since it has been opened up, we are getting lot of spam message (for now about 20 a day). To lower the  amount of false new leads we added the captcha field and new enquieries are send to the Approval Leads list. However we still get some spam. Is there any "anti spam" mechanism built in Zoho CRM, or how is the best way to avoid these kind of spam ? Thanks
