I was wondering what impact it will have to course completions if any, if I adjust a survey question to make it mandatory within a survey in the central repository and used on many courses?

All questions are non-mandatory, but I want to change that. Will this force all learners who have completed the survey, which in many courses is an end of marker object and completion criteria, will changing the question impact them?

Has anyone done this?

It should only affect users who haven’t yet launched the survey.

It should only affect users who haven’t yet launched the survey.

Have you tested this as I have not, and didn’t want to impact 1000s of learners who have done the course survey before. I would think the design logic behind this would be to not impact previous learners as that would be terrible. I’ll test in my sandbox unless someone is 100% sure.

I agree but I havent tested this exact scenario so please make sure it works as you expect.
