SmartFilter is a feature that filters responses through various conditions. There are several basic rules as it is a complex feature so please understand them before using.
- All filter conditions are set at 'Included'
- For example, [Question:Select all of your favorite fruits.] [Choices: Apple, strawberry, grape, banana], When you set the filter as [Apple] as you make a filter for this question, this would indicate that you wish to view all responses including apple. In other words, it refers to all responses including apples such as [Apple], [Apple, strawberry], [Apple, grape, banana], etc. Remember that it does not signify 'Responses excluding strawberry, grape, and banana' just because [Strawberry, grape, banana] is turned off visually. condition including the viewing the selected answers is prioritized.
- Selection among choices in choice type questions (Single Choice, Multiple Choice, Ranking)and scale type questions (Point Scale, Star Rating) is 'OR' condition.
- For example, [Question: Select all of your favorite fruits.] [Choices: Apple, strawberry, grape, banana], When you set the filter as [Apple] and [Strawberry] as you make a filter for this question, this would refer to 'all responses including apple or strawberry'. In other words, the condition is satisfied even if one of the two among apple and strawberries is included such as [Apple], [Apple, grape], and [Strawberry, banana].
- Each score on opinion scale can also be selected with OR condition like multiple choice questions.
-
Entering a space for Text answer, Response ID, Respondent number, URL additional data filter is ‘OR’ condition.
-
For example, if you enter ‘John Jane’ for filter of a question asking a name, it filters all answers includes text of ‘John’ or ‘Jane’.

- It is 'AND' condition between question filters.
- For example, [Question: Select all of your favorite fruits.] and [Question: What is your gender?]If you create filters with 2 questions and select [Apple] and [Male], this would signify 'Responses that select male and apple'. If you select [apple, strawberry] and [Female] in the same scenario, this would signify 'Responses that select female and apple or strawberry'.
