Answer a questionnaire

Your institution can ask for your opinion about a project, evaluate a guest conductor or collect data, such as your allergies or the day you arrive on a tour. The questionnaires you have open are on the web, in My Weikos, and in the app menu.

  1. In the menu, go to My Weikos › My questionnaires. The orange number is how many you have pending.
  2. In To answer, click Answer. Next to it you see until when you can do it.
  3. Read the notice at the top: it tells you whether the questionnaire is anonymous or your answers carry your name.
  4. Answer and click Send. If something is missing, it takes you to the question and tells you what’s wrong.

Once sent, the questionnaire moves to Already answered. In a named one, See my answers shows you what you answered. If you have none open, you’ll see You have no open questionnaires.

Answers can’t be changed once sent. Answered questionnaires stay on the list while the questionnaire is open; when it closes, it disappears.

In the question, drag the files or click Choose files. Below you see which types it accepts, how big and how many. Each file is uploaded right away, with its bar; while they upload, the send button waits. If you make a mistake, remove it with the ✕.

In an anonymous questionnaire, the file is kept without your name, without the time and without the name it had, and photos have their internal data, such as the location, removed. What Weikos can’t remove is what a document carries inside: a Word or PDF file often keeps the author’s name in its properties. Check it before uploading it.

What you answer is saved on its own. If you leave and come back, it’s still there. In a named one you can carry on from another computer or from the app; in an anonymous one, only from the same browser, because your answers aren’t saved in Weikos until you send them.

Your institution doesn’t know whether you have answered or what you answered. Only a large group is kept with your answers, such as your instrument family, and the notice at the top tells you which. Weikos knows internally that you have answered so you can’t answer twice, but it doesn’t show it to anyone.

If you scan the QR or open the link of a questionnaire that was sent to you, it opens in your questionnaires. On your phone, if you have the app installed, it opens in the app; if not, in the browser, where it asks you to Sign in to answer. If the questionnaire is public, you can answer it without an account, once per device.

If your institution has invited you by email and you don’t have a Weikos account, the link in the email is yours alone and works for answering once.

  • You don’t see My questionnaires. Your institution doesn’t use questionnaires.
  • A questionnaire doesn’t appear. It wasn’t sent to you, it hasn’t been published yet or it has already closed.
  • It says the link isn’t valid. Write the domain with its dot and no spaces, such as weikos.io; with or without https:// works. If the question asks for a specific site, the link has to be from that site.
  • A file won’t upload. The reason is shown under the file: the question doesn’t accept that type of file, it exceeds the maximum size or the maximum number of files has been reached. If it says the content doesn’t match its format, save it again in its format (for example, by exporting it to PDF) instead of changing its extension.
  • A photo won’t upload in an anonymous questionnaire. It’s an iPhone photo in HEIC format, which can’t be cleaned of its internal data. Save it in JPG format or take a screenshot and upload that.
  • It asks you to upload a file again. You uploaded it more than 7 days ago and didn’t send the questionnaire. Remove it with the ✕ and upload it again.
  • It says This link is no longer valid. Your institution has changed the link or withdrawn the questionnaire. Ask for the new link.
  • With the link from an invitation, it says You have already answered this questionnaire. Thank you.. Your link works for answering once, and you have already used it.
  • You want to change an answer. Once sent, you can’t: tell your institution.
