Importing surveys into Delve is quick and straightforward. This guide will walk you through preparing, uploading, and reviewing your survey data using a simple drag-and-drop process.

How to Upload a Survey in Delve

Uploading a survey in Delve is a simple process that allows you to import responses quickly and efficiently. Follow these steps to add a survey by importing a CSV file:


Step 1: Prepare Your CSV File

Delve is designed to work with CSV files where each row represents a participant's responses, and each column corresponds to a survey question.

  • First Column: Use the first column for participant names or IDs. This helps keep responses organized and identifiable.

  • Headers: Ensure the first row contains the names of your survey questions.

  • Clean Up: Remove any unnecessary columns to streamline your data for upload.

This setup ensures your survey is ready for smooth processing in Delve.


Step 2: Drag and Drop Your CSV File

  1. Navigate to the Surveys section in Delve.

  2. Drag your prepared CSV file into the upload area or click to browse and select the file.


Step 3: Wait for the Upload to Complete

  1. Once you upload the CSV, Delve will process it automatically. You’ll see a loading indicator that says, “Uploading CSV...”.

  2. This step may take a few moments depending on the size of your file.


Step 4: Review Your Survey

After the upload is complete, you'll arrive at the Tabular View of your survey, where all responses are displayed in a table format. From here, you can start coding your data:

  • View Individual Responses: Click on a participant's name to see just their responses. You can code directly on this page, focusing on one participant at a time.

  • Explore Question Responses: Click on any answer to open the "Question Page," which shows all participant responses to that specific question. You can code responses collectively on this page for deeper insights.

This structured approach helps you organize and analyze your survey data effectively in Delve.


That's it! Your survey is now uploaded and ready for analysis in Delve. If you encounter any issues during the upload process, feel free to contact our support team for assistance.
