Close a study

Congrats on completing your study! Closing your study brings you one step closer to deep-diving into your data.

Closing a study is permanent and cannot be undone.

Closing a diary or live interview study

1

Navigate to any page within your study.

2

Click Close study in the green bar which appears at the top of your study. A confirmation modal is displayed.

3

Click Close study to confirm.

Reminder that studies cannot be re-opened after you've closed them.

Once your study is closed, the green bar at the top of your study will turn purple, signifying that your study is currently closed. Additionally, all participants in the Manage page will have a purple “Closed” box next to their name.

When you close a study, participants can no longer be invited or submit entries. From the participant's point-of-view, the study will move from being prominently displayed in their “In Progress” tab to their “Closed Studies” page. Don’t worry—you can still message your participants when you close your study.

If you accidentally close your study, please reach out to your Research Advisor or Dscout Support via the support widget (tap the "?" in the top right corner of your study) as soon as possible.

Closing other study types

For information on closign other study types, see the following articles:

• Close a usability test.

• Close a media survey.

• Close an intercept study.

These study types cannot be reopened after they have been closed, and Dscout Staff cannot reopen a closed study for you. If you have accidentally closed your study, you will need to duplicate and relaunch the study.
