What does it mean to view inspections by questions and responses in Analytics?
Pulling your inspection data by questions and responses allows you to easily identify patterns, trends, and areas for improvement. By understanding how many times specific responses are selected in inspections, you can quickly identify areas of interest, allowing you to prioritize addressing the most impactful findings first.

If you've edited a default response set and want to use it to view your inspection data, we suggest filtering with a specific template to ensure you get the correct data.
Limitations
You can only filter data by selecting default response sets and Global Response Sets. Default response sets are added automatically when you create a new template. However, when you rename, delete, or add new responses, they will appear as number placeholders in charts.
The "Question" attribute only supports multiple-choice questions which include custom response sets and Global Response Sets.
Charts with multiple metrics selected can’t use the “Question” attribute.
Frequently asked questions
"Question not found" means that the question has been deleted from the template. Please note that deleting a question from a template and then creating the same question afterward won't link it to the previous question in any way.
Number placeholders such as [1], [2], and so on means that the response has either been newly added, renamed, or deleted from the template.
