Notes

Export to Responsive

The Export to Responsive feature allows you to extract questions from a portal and import them into Responsive as a project, where you can complete responses.

How it works

The Export to Responsive option detects questionnaire sections and questions from the portal and imports them into a Responsive project. You can then use Responsive’s authoring and review workflows to draft, collaborate on, and finalize responses at the project or section level.

When done, return to the portal, relaunch the extension, and auto-fill the finalized responses into the web form.

Using Export to Responsive

  1. Open the portal and launch the Responsive LookUp Chrome/Edge extension.

  2. Click Export Questions to export the questionnaire.

  3. Navigate to Projects to access the exported questionnaire.

  • Conditional questions are not included in this export flow. You can answer them manually or use Ask to generate responses on the portal.
