Building a Multilingual List Survey

1. On the Target Market page, click the language dropdown, and check the boxes next to all languages you would like to include.
   Note: If you do not see the language you would like to field in, please reach out to our Support team to discuss options.
2. Click Edit Survey to proceed to the Survey Editor after you have confirmed privacy jurisdictions, sample size, and other options on the Target Market page.

Once the survey has been programmed in the Researcher Language (by default, Researcher language is English, or the first language selected in the list on the Target Market page), you can begin programming your other language(s).

1. Click the Languages button in the upper right corner of the Survey Editor, or above any question to open the Translation table. From this page, you can manually type the translation, or streamline the translation by uploading a translated CSV.
2. Click Download CSV to download a CSV of the current state. This CSV will  have:
   a. A column for the survey schema.
   b. A column with any aytm Logic used throughout the survey.
   c. A column for the researcher language (which should be filled in already).
   d. An empty column for each language you would like to field in. 
3. Make edits here, or send this file to your Translator, with clear instructions to leave the logic column intact.
   Note: aytm recommends saving the updated CSV file as CSV UTF-8.
4. Click Upload CSV on the Translation Table to upload the updated version into the platform
   Note: This file must have ALL languages filled in. Any empty columns or any edits to the Researcher language column will replace the existing text.
5. Make any changes to translations directly in the appropriate column of the translation table.

Before you launch your survey, be sure to preview the entire study. In Researcher mode and Ghost mode, you can select the preview language; in Respondent mode, you must select the preview language by answering the language preference question. 

There are three ways to preview your survey:

1. Click the Quick Preview button on the Survey Editor page.
2. On the Translation Table, click the English, or Researcher language dropdown, and select Quick Preview to view the survey as a Respondent, in Researcher mode, or in Ghost mode. 
3. Click the Translation language dropdown to:
   a. Open a Quick preview of the survey.
   b. View survey schema from the Survey Editor page in the translated language.

Note: If you would like to enforce quotas on respondents’ preferred language, please reach out to your account manager or our support team for assistance.

On the Results page all survey data will aggregate in a single report in the default language. You can:

• Preview the survey in any programmed translation.
• Filter responses by preferred language by clicking Locale drop-down menu and selecting the desired language(s).
• Generate Virtual questions.

With your survey programmed, click on the Languages button in the upper right corner, or the Languages button above any question. The Translation Table will open to show a column for the survey schema and a column for each language you selected on the Target Market page.

• Click the Undo/Redo buttons across the top of the Translation Table to revert any recent changes.
• Click the Target Market button to jump back to the Target Market page.
• Click the Columns dropdown menu to show or hide languages.
• Click the Translation language dropdown to:
  • Open a Quick preview of the survey.
  • View survey schema from the Survey Editor page in the translated language.
  • Set the translated language as the researcher language (remember this will also affect the Results page).
  • Delete the translation, which will completely reset your translation. A previous version of the survey (including the deleted translation) will appear in your Survey History.
