Question Library

The Question Library helps you save, reuse, and govern blocks of survey content across many projects. Instead of duplicating work—same NPS stem, same demographics, same compliance text—you bookmark a question once and insert it anywhere from Add question → Questions library, keeping teams aligned on wording and validation.

For brand-new flows, start from How to create a survey. When you need a whole duplicate form, use Copying surveys and creating folders.

1. Saving a question to the library

  1. Open your survey and select the question you want to save.

  2. On the right-hand side panel, click the bookmark icon.

  3. The question is stored in your Question Library and becomes available in any future survey.

Tip: This is especially useful for frequently used questions, like employee NPS, satisfaction, or demographic blocks.

  2. In the question type menu, scroll down and click Questions library.

  4. Select the question you want to insert; it appears directly in your survey.

3. Managing your library

  • All saved questions live under the Questions Library section.
  • You can search, edit, or remove entries anytime.
  • Edits do not retroactively change questions already placed in live forms—only newly inserted copies pick up the updated definition.

When a saved item must always be answered, combine it with Make your questions required after you insert it.

Best practices

  • Save standardized questions (for example NPS, onboarding, demographics) so every team uses the same baseline.
  • Use clear names in the library so others can find the right block quickly.
  • Review periodically to retire outdated wording or retired compliance text.

Reusable library entries cut setup time and reduce copy-paste mistakes across your survey portfolio.

FAQ

What is the Question Library in Responsly?

It is a reusable store of survey questions you save from the editor. You insert copies into new or existing forms instead of rebuilding the same wording, scales, or instructions from scratch each time.

If I edit a question in the library, do past surveys update automatically?

No. Changes apply to the library entry itself and to questions you insert after the edit. Surveys that already contain an older copy of the question keep their previous version until you replace it manually.

How do I add a saved question into a survey?

While editing a form, click Add question, choose Questions library in the menu, search or browse, then select the item to drop it into the survey.
