Great Question Teams (Beta)

Break down your workspace into Teams

Great Question's Teams feature is a great way to break down your GQ workspace into groups based on existing teams in your organization, types of work done by different members, or any other groups that make sense for your workspace.

What is Teams and what does it do?

As mentioned above, Teams is a way to create dedicated groups within your workspace, allowing for the separation of team members, candidates, and studies.

Team Members

Members of your workspace can be split up into dedicated teams, or added to multiple teams, depending on the type of work they do, and the access that they need to have.

Candidates

Candidates can be split up into dedicated teams to ensure they are only being contacted by certain members and for certain studies.

  • Upon creation, each team will have access to any candidates that have their Contact access set to Anyone in the workspace.
    • More on Contact access below.
  • Users can still view all candidates when accessing the Global Candidates page.
Studies

Studies can be created and moved into teams to ensure candidates are shortlisted from the respective team's candidate list, as well as keeping studies organized.

  • Each study within a team have the team name as an identifier next to the collaborator list and status, while viewing from within the study.
  • At this time, closed studies cannot be moved into a team, or from one team to another.
  • Only admins can move studies to any team. Creators can only move studies to teams that they are in.
