# Recruit from Partner Panels using a screener

Building a Partner Panels screener works the same as building any other screener in Dscout. When creating your screener, you’ll select Partner Panels as your recruitment method, then you’ll define your targeting attributes and write your questions as you normally would.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** You can only choose one recruitment approach for your screener. So, choosing to recruit from Partner Panels means your screener will only be available on our third-party partner platforms.
{% endhint %}

**To create a Partner Panels screener:**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
In your Dscout project, open the **Screeners** tab.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Create screener**.

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/TFBR5vWVUmusmDtcTQnF" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Select **Recruit from Dscout's Partner Panels** as your recruiting approach.

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/2kssCOuupuCwzVJ7GpXH" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Continue**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Enter a screener **title**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Create screener**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Now, build your screener by adding targeting attributes and screener questions. (Be sure to refer to the next section to understand the slight differences between a standard Dscout screener and a Partner Panels screener.) And when you’re ready, submit your screener for review so we can open it for participants.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** You cannot skip review for Partner Panels screeners. Our typical turnaround time for screener review is 1–2 business days.
{% endhint %}

## Requirements and limitations

While recruiting from Partner Panels works very similarly to other Dscout recruiting methods, we impose a few limitations to ensure compatibility with our third-party partners.

### Piping logic

Piping logic (the ability to recall participants' responses in subsequent questions) is not currently supported when recruiting from Partner Panels.

### Targeting attributes

Targeting attributes automatically filter who can apply to your screener or mission based on information available in their profile with our third-party partners. When recruiting from Partner Panels, the following targeting attributes are available:

| Category              | Attributes                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Demographics          | <p></p><ul><li>Country. (For more information on available countries, see <a href="/spaces/IKfn7RcT4CW9XaIbqAdd/pages/00be2e8af49a4edc2c95a12f8b25f52d26c7055c">Partner Panels</a>.)</li><li>Household income.</li><li>Gender.</li><li>Education.</li><li>Ethnicity.</li><li>Age Range.</li></ul> |

### Screener questions

Screener questions are what participants will answer when applying to participate in your mission. **You must include a minimum of two questions drawn from the following question types:**

* Multiple choice (single- or multi-select).
* Typed response (Open-ended).
* Scale.
* Number.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Checkpoint, Ranking, Photo, Video, and Screen recording questions are not supported when recruiting from Partner Panels. However, you can include them in your actual mission.
{% endhint %}

Some of your questions should include knockout logic, which will automatically reject applicants who provide responses that don’t fit your research needs.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** **Must select any** logic is not supported in Partner Panels screeners. If a single question has multiple acceptable responses, a participant must select all of them to qualify. For guidance on how to apply knockout logic in Partner Panels screeners, see [Knockout logic in partner panels screeners](/recruit-participants/partner-panels/knockout-logic-in-partner-panels-screeners.md).
{% endhint %}

## Review responses

You can view responses to a Partner Panels screener directly in Dscout as you normally would with any other screener. Simply navigate to the **Participants** view of the **Responses** tab of your screener and you’ll find a list of participants. Participants recruited from Partner Panels are indicated with a Partner Panels badge:

![](/files/cdda7ee655d7540cc69fe355474e19e2abc07fb8)

Select a participant to view their screener responses and profile information provided by our third-party partners.

## Add participants to a mission

Once you’ve identified participants you want to invite to your mission, you can do so from within your screener or from within the mission itself. However, keep the following in mind when inviting Partner Panels participants to missions:

* **Partner Panels participants can only be added to one Dscout mission.** Once added to a mission, a participant cannot be added to another, even if removed from the first mission.
* Whether adding participants to a mission before or after launch, **the mission incentive must be equal to or higher than the incentive listed on the screener.**

## 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/recruit-participants/partner-panels/recruit-from-partner-panels-using-a-screener.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.
