Make sense of your survey exports

Use this toolkit to turn a Qualtrics response file into organized tables and an interactive report. Start with a CSV you already have, or download responses through the Qualtrics API.

You can follow the guides by copying a few commands. You do not need to write Python. If someone has already sent you a report, start with reading a report.

Create your first report Parse a CSV again

Choose your next step

• Try it with example data

From export to report

Keep the response file and its matching survey definition together. The response file contains people's answers; the definition describes the questions and allowed choices. After parsing, you can create a report, combine surveys, or prepare a dashboard.

The example survey uses invented responses. You can complete the first-report tutorial without a Qualtrics account or API token.
