# Multiple panels

{% hint style="info" %}
*Note: This is an add-on feature, please reach out to* [*sales@dscout.com*](mailto:sales@dscout.com) *for access.*
{% endhint %}

If you manage multiple panels (e.g. Consumer, B2B, Country-specific), Private Panels provides a clean and easy way to segment your panelists, as well as health metrics on each panel.

This is what it looks like to switch between your panels:

## Create a new panel

To create a new panel, go to **Panel > All Panels** and click **New Panel**. Only **Admins** have this access.

## Edit a panel (Panel Settings)

To edit an existing panel (aka viewing the **Panel Settings** page), you are two options.

Go to **Panel > All Panels** and click on one of the panels in the list.

Or, on the **Panel > Panelists** page, click the Panel name to reveal a dropdown, then click the **Settings icon**.

## Associate panel sign-up forms

To start getting panelist signups, you need to associate a form (Settings Forms) with a specific Panel. On the **Panel Settings** page, scroll down to **Data Collection** to view your associated forms, or add new forms.

## Permissions

To restrict internal access to this panel, go to the **Permissions** section of the Panel settings page, and turn ON the setting *Only allow certain users to access this panel*. By default, only admins retain access to this panel. And you can click **+ Add User** to grant access to non-admin users.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.dscout.com/private-panels/panel-management/multiple-panels.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
