Distribution

Reach users three ways — inside your app with the surveys script, on your public portal, or with a standalone shareable link that opens the survey as its own page.

Three Ways to Reach Users

A single survey can be delivered through any of three channels without reconfiguring it. Eligibility rules — audience, location, triggers, and frequency — apply consistently across all of them, so a survey behaves the same no matter how a user arrives.

In Your App

The most common channel. Once the surveys script is installed, published surveys reveal themselves as a popover or modal card whenever a visitor is eligible and the trigger fires.

This is the channel for every trigger type — auto-triggered surveys (like a recurring NPS), event-triggered surveys (like a CSAT after a completed task), and surveys you fire yourself with startSurvey() (like a "Give feedback" button). See Installation & SDK to add the script and Targeting & Triggers to control when surveys appear.

Public Portal

If you run a ProductBridge public portal, eligible surveys also appear there for signed-in visitors. This reaches users who engage with your feedback boards and roadmap even when they're not inside your product, with no extra setup beyond publishing the survey.

Every survey has a public, standalone URL that opens it as its own full-page experience — no widget or portal required. Use it in an email, a Slack message, a QR code, or anywhere you can paste a link.

The link looks like:

https://app.productbridge.io/s/<organizationId>/<surveyId>

From the survey editor

Open a saved survey and expand the Share by link section to copy its URL.

From the analytics dashboard

Open a survey's analytics and use the Share by link button in the header to copy or open the link.

  • Eligible recipients see the survey and can respond.
  • Everyone else gets a friendly "not available" message — the link respects the same targeting and frequency rules as every other channel.
  • The link only goes live once the survey is published. You can copy it beforehand, but it starts working after you publish.

For a survey targeted to a segment or restricted to identified users, recipients need to be recognized to be eligible. Share links work best for surveys aimed at everyone, or when recipients are already signed in.
