A matrix question allows you to effectively ask respondents more than one question in a single, compact field, allowing you to keep similar questions together instead of spreading out across multiple, distinct fields or pages.
It's just as easy to get started with our matrix question as it is any of our other questions.
Setting it up
Using slash commands
From the form editor, select a blank line outside any questions or question groups.
Type /matrix and click the entry for the "Matrix" question.
Without using slash commands
From the form editor, select a blank line outside any questions or question groups.
Click "Add Question" in the options that appear to the left of the line.
Click the type (default is text) and change it to matrix.
Configuration
In either case, head into the question's configuration and customize the column and row names to your liking.
Optionally, you may allow more than one response per row, changing the radio buttons into checkboxes.
Example use cases
Likert scale grid
Availability
These are just a couple possibilities. Play around with it, realize your use cases, and engage with your respondents in a more efficient manner.
