How to Review Responses

Find the answers that matter, filter by campaign, read individual submissions, export for leadership, and hand off open text to Analysis.

Real-world scenario

Priya Mehta · People Ops Lead at Bluewave Labs

The Q2 engagement deployment hit 74% completion. Priya filters to Engineering, exports NPS scores for the exec team, and flags three negative open-text responses about on-call load for follow-up.

Before you begin

  • At least one completed or in-progress deployment
  • DEX viewer or admin role

Overview

Responses is your audit trail. Every answer links to a respondent, deployment, and survey version, so when leadership asks "what did Engineering say in Q2?" you can answer with data, not memory.

Priya's Q2 filter

Survey: Bluewave Q2 Engagement Pulse · Deployment: Q2 2026 All Hands window· Folder: Engineering · Status: Completed · Export columns: NPS, department, open text

View and filter

  1. 1

    Open DEX → Responses

    You'll see every submission across surveys, newest first.

  2. 2

    Filter by survey or deployment

    Narrow to Q2 Engagement or a specific week-1 onboarding batch so you're not scrolling 200 unrelated rows.

  3. 3

    Filter by folder or status

    Find incomplete respondents before a deployment closes, or isolate Engineering folder answers.

  4. 4

    Open an individual response

    See every answer, timestamp, and linked respondent. Useful when a manager asks about one direct report.

  5. 5

    Export to CSV

    Download filtered results for a board deck or external BI tool. Exports respect your role permissions.

  6. 6

    Send to Analysis

    Jump to sentiment and wordcloud views once you have enough open-text answers to summarize.

Per-survey drill-down

Open a survey-specific response list to compare deployments side by side. Priya uses this every quarter: same pulse survey, different deployment dates. Q1 vs Q2 NPS trend without rebuilding the survey.

For exit interviews, filter to the offboarding deployment and read responses individually. Confidential comments stay in DEX; you don't need a separate Typeform export.

Export

CSV exports include respondent metadata, timestamps, and all question columns. Priya attaches the Engineering slice to her quarterly People Ops deck; Alex Kim (VP of IT) gets the full-company NPS summary.

Managers see less

People leaders use the Manager Dashboard for team-scoped insights, they don't need full Responses access to act on pulse feedback.
