Set anonymous participation in a survey
If a survey is anonymous, your user data is hidden in survey results. The responses to survey questions are available for all users, but the system does not report who made which response.
While learners are taking an anonymous survey, an alert appears at the top of the survey indicating that the survey is anonymous and their user information is not tied to their responses.
