Are your respondents sharing a device, e.g. at a workshop?
Is a researcher collecting responses from several participants?
By default, the Allow only one respondent per device+browser-setting (formerly Maintain respondent session) is on in all questionnaires.
You can just turn it off, but sometimes you may need a 'hybrid' solution (e.g. most respondents will use their personal devices but there is also a workshop with shared devices).
In this type of case, you can leave the setting on, but use a different questionnaire link with a reset parameter for the for the workshop. The reset parameter forces a fresh respondent session each time that the questionnaire is accessed through it.
How do I set up the reset parameter?
Simply add the ending ?reset=true to the questionnaire URL. For example, if your questionnaire URL was
https://app.maptionnaire.com/q/qwertyzxcvb
you could turn it into a reset link by adding ?reset=true to the end:
https://app.maptionnaire.com/q/qwertyzxcvb?reset=true
Why can't I just use incognito/private browsing window?
You can, but it's not a 100% sure way of resetting the browser session. To be on the safe side, use a reset parameter.
