Study Statuses
Draft: Study has been created but has not yet been published and does not yet have Participants added. Participants can not view or access Draft Studies. Any edits or changes should be made while in Draft status to ensure your Participants have the best experience. Update your Draft Study to an Active Study by selecting 'Actions' > 'Edit Study', completing all setup steps, and selecting 'Publish'.
Active: Study has been published, is in progress, and may or may not have Participants added or contacted. Studies should have all setup steps filled in and reviewed to ensure accuracy before publishing to Active. Changing to “Active” opens your study for recruitment. Participants you've invited will be able to access any tests, surveys, screeners, or scheduling calendars in this Study. Email and incentive sending is enabled.
Paused: Study has been paused to stop Participant access to this Study. Participants won't be able to access tests, surveys, screeners, or scheduling in this Study. Email and incentive sending is disabled, but incentives already sent can still be claimed by Participants.
Closed: Study has been completed, all incentives sent, no more changes are needed, and recruitment is closed. Participants won't be able to access tests, surveys, screeners, or scheduling in this Study. Email and incentive sending is disabled, but incentives already sent can still be claimed by Participants.
After closing studies, you can Archive Studies to keep your workspace clean and focused without losing historical data.
