# Relaunch a closed screener or mission
| Study type | Availability |
|---|
| Screeners | true |
| Usability tests | true |
| Media surveys | true |
When your participant limit has been reached, your screener, usability test, or media survey will automatically close. It’s also possible to close your screener or mission manually. For example, maybe you noticed an error or simply weren’t getting responses you found helpful and decided to hold off on recruiting more participants. Whatever the case, you can relaunch your closed screener or mission to reopen it to participants.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Screeners and missions can only be relaunched within two weeks of being closed. If a screener or mission has been closed longer than two weeks, create a duplicate instead.
{% endhint %}
You might relaunch a screener or mission if:
* You want to increase your participant limit (n-size).
* You want to increase any quotas you have applied to individual questions.
* You’ve made other edits to your screener or mission and want to resume recruitment.
{% hint style="success" %}
**Tip:** Relaunching a screener or mission requires you to first enter Editing mode. While in Editing mode, you can make changes to your questions and more. For more information, see Edit a launched screener or mission.
{% endhint %}
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Navigate to the screener or mission you want to relaunch.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Click **Edit** in the top-right corner. A modal appears displaying a few reminders.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Click **Edit screener/mission** in the modal. This enables Editing mode.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
(Optional) Make any necessary edits. If your participant limit has been reached, you’ll at least need to increase this value before you can relaunch.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Click **Launch** in the top-right corner. A confirmation modal appears.
Click **Launch** in the modal to verify.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
Now, your screener or mission will once again be available to participants. New responses will appear alongside any you’ve already collected on the **Responses** tab. You can close your screener or mission again at any time by clicking **Close** in the top-right corner.

## 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/study-basics/edit-close-or-relaunch-missions/relaunch-a-closed-screener-or-mission.md?ask=&goal=
```
`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.
