Question

Names of Guests in surveys are not available it shows only "guest"

When analysing the surveys in a meeting where guests can also register, the names are not displayed.

I have a meeting and a survey in which everyone can participate, I did a test and registered as a guest where I can also enter my name.
If I now take part in the survey and then look at the results, I only see Guest in the name and not the name entered by the guest.

So I can not do any analysis of the result because I only see Guest as name.

 

The anonymised participation option is switched off.

Hey @Calvo,

 

Thank you for your question. We suggest turning on the "Require answers to be anonymous" off so you'll be able to view the name of the attendee. Please go to the survey you made under "Surveys" and click on the gear icon at the top right to access "Settings", make sure to uncheck "Require answers to be anonymous" option.

Hi, 

I’m having this same issue with ‘guest’ appearing in poll and survey results. The only people names appear to be those who have signed into Zoom with an email address and set up an account. Is a Zoom account required for names to be visible in poll/survey results, or is there a way for guest names to be shown. 

As with the first post, the anonymous setting is turned off, so this is not the issue. 

Thank you!
