Set up scoring for custom response sets
Learn how to set up scoring for custom response sets in templates via the web app and the mobile app.
How does scoring work for custom response sets?
By setting up scoring at the custom response set level, you can customize each response's score value depending on its importance. Score values can be assigned or removed from each response in a custom response set. Changes apply to all questions that use the custom response set.
When it's not relevant, you can also remove scoring from your responses or disable scoring from the template entirely to ensure you only get to record what's needed.
You can also change the score values for questions in your template.
What you'll need
Limitations
Only the following response types support scoring:
Multiple-choice: Custom response set and Global Response Set

Disabling and re-enabling scoring will reset score values to 0. This means you would need to set up your score values at the question level again.
