Import from another study
Select screener questions and interview items from another study, then add them to or replace the current guide.
Import copies questions from another study in the same organization. The source study stays unchanged, and edits to it do not update the imported copy.
Choose what to import
- Open Build, open the screener or interview section's More menu, and choose Import.
- Find the source study in Recents, or use Browse to open its workspace and folder. Search by project name to find studies across the organization.
- Select a study to preview its screener and interview. Clear the checkboxes for anything to keep out of the import. A section checkbox selects or clears the section and its questions.
- Click Import.
An empty selection disables Import. Cancelling a confirmation returns to the preview with the selection intact.
Keep conditional logic
If selected sections or screener skip rules need questions left out of the selection, choose whether to include those questions:
- Keep conditional logic includes the referenced questions so the copied rules can still work.
- Remove conditional logic imports the selection and removes rules that cannot work without the omitted questions.
Strella shows a warning when it cannot preserve some rules. Strella does not copy quotas and participant groups, so it removes rules that depend on them.
Review the copied rules: importing repairs older answer references, which can change which sections participants see compared with the source study.
Add or replace
Choose how the selected items enter the current study:
- Add to the current guide appends them and keeps the existing questions. This is the default.
- Replace the current guide replaces the selected screener or interview content. If no questions are selected from one of those sections, that section stays unchanged.
A screener can contain up to 40 questions. If adding would exceed the limit, choose Replace or cancel and select fewer questions. Replacing the screener clears its legal agreement setting. Review any existing quota or interview rules that referred to the questions being replaced.
When keeping logic includes screener questions, choosing Replace also replaces the current screener with those questions. The Replace option names the content it overwrites.
If an added screener question has the same wording as an existing question, its copy gets an (imported N) suffix. Participants see that wording. An import notification lists any renamed questions.
The screener and interview import together in one step. Undo restores both.
Human-moderated studies
Human-moderated studies use a screener-only import. Choose a source study, review the screener, and click Use this screener to replace the current questions.
