# Survey Template

### Overview

Survey templates allow you to launch professional, consistent surveys in minutes. Instead of building every questionnaire from scratch, you can leverage a library of pre-configured templates that include pre-written questions, branching logic, and optimized settings.

### Managing the Template Library

Administrators can curate the organization’s template library via **Admin Portal → Modules → Survey → Templates**. This ensures that common survey structures—such as pulse checks or event feedback—are standardized across all departments.

#### **Designing Custom Templates**

Admins can build reusable templates from the ground up using a four-step process:

* **Properties**: Set the template title, instructions, featured image, and icon.
* **Design**: Build out the question set and configure the rule builder for complex logic.
* **Preferences**: Set global defaults for anonymity, mandatory responses, and who has access to the resulting insights.
* **Preview & Publish**: Review the final look and feel before making the template available to the rest of the organization.

#### **Template Maintenance**

The template hub allows for ongoing management of your survey assets. Admins can duplicate templates to create variations, reorder them using drag-and-drop to highlight the most relevant options, or deactivate older templates to remove them from the creator flow without affecting existing surveys.

Template names **must be unique** within your organization. Draft templates remain hidden from survey creators until they are officially published by an admin.
