Transfer ownership of University surveys

While Qualtrics surveys can be shared with multiple users and groups, a survey can only be owned by a single account. If the account that owns the survey is deactivated the survey will not be accessible to collaborators or respondents.

  1. Survey owner

  2. Before you leave the University, you are encouraged to transfer ownership of your survey(s) to another UW-Madison Qualtrics user.

    To transfer ownership of your survey, you will need to submit your request to UW-Madison Brand Qualtrics Administrators.

  3. Collaborators

  4. Collaborators need to contact the survey owner to initiate transfer of ownership. Survey owners must approve any request to transfer ownership of their survey(s).
