A sample is a list of people you want to invite for one or more surveys. A sample contains the details of your respondents required for sending out a survey invitation.
There is no limit as to the size of the sample. The sample can therefore include more than one million sample members. However, there is a maximum of one million sample members that can be downloaded via Excel. If you want to download the data of more than one million sample members, you must make use of an API.
In this field you can search on sample name. If you have a long list of samples, you can quickly and easily find a particular sample. Only samples with the specified character (e.g. M) or combination of characters (e.g. Manu) in the name will be displayed.
The opt-out list is a list of e-mail addresses and telephone numbers of sample members who can no longer be invited to participate in surveys from your workspace. For more information, see the Opt-out list topic in Survalyzer.
