How to Generate a Report?

    Is it better to create a poll versus a survey in order to have the results calculated?

    I have created a survey but I do not see a way to have the survey create a report of the results. Before I publish this I want to be sure I can get the results in a format to share with my team. Am I missing something? I just wonder if I should create my survey as a poll instead.

    Thanks!

    Hi Bartlett, 

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. With Jotform Report Builder, you can easily generate visual reports that are based on your submission data. Let me show you how:

    1. On your My Forms page, select the form that you want to create a report for.

    2. Click on Reports at the top of the page, and then click on Add New Report.

    3. Now, select Visual Report Builder, which will open Report Builder.

    4. Enter a Report name and choose a Report Type.

    5. Then, click on Create and that’s it. You’re done.

    Give it a try and let us know if you need any help.
