How can I review my Microsurvey data?

In your Chameleon Dashboard, you can access both the data associated with your Microsurveys, as well as the responses your users leave. Here, you can conduct performance checks to understand how your Microsurveys are being completed by your users.

As product feedback is a key component of your app's development, you'll want to leverage this data as soon as possible, including sending it to your tool stack. Here's how you can review it outside of Chameleon:

💡 Microsurveys are powerful because they are quick and contextual. By getting responses in your Slack channels you ensure visibility over users' needs and can act to re-engage them quicker.


What data do I have available?

For Microsurveys, Chameleon collects events such as Chameleon Microsurvey started (sent every time a Microsurvey is seen by a user) or responded and properties of events (e.g. button_text, which contains the text of the button within a Microsurvey that was clicked by a user).

Review our Data Schema below for the full details on the data that Chameleon collects (for Microsurveys and other Chameleon products).


Microsurveys reporting

In your Dashboard, you can review the overall or individual performance of all Microsurveys you have live. On the main Microsurveys page, you have a few charts to help you assess the overall engagement.

Come here to see how many Microsurveys you have live, how many users have completed them, and your lifetime "Engagement Index."

You can use the "Performance chart" and "Engagement Index" to understand how users engage with your Microsurveys over time. In the table below, you can review other details to help you identify healthy feedback loops: the Microsurvey type, how many times a specific Microsurvey has been started and completed, and who is seeing it.

💡 Depending on the types of Microsurveys you have live (i.e. NPS vs onboarding feedback) and how often they appear to users, you can monitor the Completion rate and "Engagement Index" to uncover optimization opportunities.

Individual Microsurvey Analytics

For each live Microsurvey, switch to the Analytics page in your Dashboard to check how it performs. You can use the "Performance chart", review your "Engagement index", and review the responses and interactions on each Step.

On an individual Microsurvey, the "Engagement Index" will show a daily score (depending on how long it was live), while on the Homepage and Microsurveys page, you'll see a weekly score (over 6 weeks).

On the same Analytics page, you'll also see the "Interactions" section, where you can review how users engage with each Step in your Microsurvey. Depending on the type, you'll see each Step and what users click on.

Note that the interactions section includes refreshes and repeat clicks from the same user.


Microsurvey responses

Right below the "Performance chart", you can review your Microsurvey responses. You'll find 2 distinct sections to help you peruse through feedback:

  • Question -- a chart showing the number of responses for each option of the main Microsurvey Step, where you can also review a list of users for each answer

  • Responses -- a table with all responses where you can see more details, such as the user ID, users' input from "Comments Steps", and filter responses based on properties and events

Glance over the "Question" section to quickly understand how many users responded to your Microsurvey or what are the most common responses. Depending on the Microsurvey type, this section will adjust to show responses. Here's what you can expect to find for each type of Mycrosurvey:

  • Rating

 With the Rating type, you'll also see the average score, and with the Multi button type, you'll see the most common response.

  • NPS

For the NPS type, you'll also see how many responses you received and the NSP score you had in the previous period.

  • Input

  • Dropdown

In case you archive options from your Dropdown Microsurvey, they will appear as disabled here.

  • Multi button

With all Microsurvey types, you can review a list of all the users who left specific responses by clicking the 👥 audience count in the Dashboard. This will open a slideover with all associated user data.

You can also update the dates in the performance chart to review responses for a specific period 👇

In the "Microsurvey Responses" section you can review all responses, filter, or download them. Here, you have a few options to speed up your review process:

  • filter responses

  • review all or a specific group of respondents (for Rating, NPS, Multi button types)

  • summarize with AI

  • export all responses

Filter responses

You can filter the responses you get to any Microsurvey by user properties (including imported), events, and more to bring the most relevant users who engaged with your Microsurvey (and their answers).

You can leverage the same filters available in Segments to bring up the responses you want to analyze further.

AI summaries

You can summarize the responses to your Microsurvey to help you quickly understand sentiment, needs, or opportunities. In the "Microsurvey responses" section, find the AI summary option, and hit "Summarize".

In less than a minute you'll see a summary of all responses on the Activity feed, and you'll also receive it in your email.

Export Microsurvey data

You can export both user actions, as well as responses to any Chameleon Microsurvey from the Dashboard. Find the "Export" option, both under the Actions dropdown as well as inside the Microsurvey responses" section.

You can pick between user Responses or Actions and choose where you want your data to arrive, between your email or Google Drive account. You can also include all attributes associated with the users/companies who responded to your Microsurvey.

Exports can also retain their applied filters to help you review responses more easily.


How can I use integrations to analyze my data?

As outlined above, all the Chameleon events are sent to connected integrations, so you can leverage existing analytics tools to report on Chameleon Microsurvey data.

For example, you can select the Chameleon Completed Microsurvey event and group by the button_text to see how users have responded.

Here is an example of how to do that within Mixpanel:

If you have connected Chameleon via Segment, then Chameleon will act as a Source and send this data to Segment and onwards to any other connected integrations.

Slack integration

With our Slack integration, you can send Microsurvey responses to a specific Slack channel. This can be great to share responses with the wider team and help your teammates passively hear from users; or re-engage with key customers to understand their challenges better.
