Enabling or disabling webinar surveys
Enabling Webinar Survey allows the host to present surveys to attendees and panelists once their webinar has ended. In addition to Zoom's native webinar survey feature, you can instead redirect attendees to a third-party survey service, such as Google Forms or Survey Monkey.
You can also enable surveys to send to participants after Zoom Meetings. Learn more about enabling meeting surveys.
