WalkMe Surveys in the Console

Last Updated May 12, 2026

Brief Overview

WalkMe Surveys in the console enhance WalkMe's existing survey functionality by providing advanced, AI-driven survey creation along with improved tools for survey distribution and analytics. With the Surveys app, organizations can create NPS-style, multiple-choice, and open-ended question surveys that are delivered within digital workflows or shared as standalone experiences.

The app supports customizable templates and branding options to help deliver a consistent user experience while collecting meaningful feedback at key moments across the user journey.

Use Cases

  • Employee Feedback Collection: HR leaders quickly create and deploy surveys to gather employee sentiment regarding onboarding, benefits, or engagement, - no prior WalkMe experience needed.
  • Customer Satisfaction Surveys: Customer Success Managers easily publish in-app surveys or send email surveys after support interactions to measure customer satisfaction and NPS, tracking trends over time.
  • Training Effectiveness: Training Managers collect feedback within digital training sessions to evaluate content effectiveness and identify areas for improvement, ensuring feedback is captured at the most relevant moments.
  • Feature Adoption Insights: Product Managers deploy targeted surveys directly within new product or feature flows to understand user adoption and gather feedback without requiring technical expertise.
  • Operational Efficiency Reviews: Business Operations teams embed surveys within key processes to collect feedback on workflows and identify bottlenecks, enabling continuous process improvements.
  • Compliance and Policy Feedback: Legal and Compliance teams send full-page surveys to employees for feedback on internal policies, helping to ensure alignment and understanding at key milestones.

Technical Notes

  • Customization limitations 

    • Classic Surveys: You can use CSS to customize, but you might need some advanced skills to make it match the look of your app

    • Full page surveys: No BBcode, richtext, or custom CSS

    • Theming app integration: Is supported

      • Popup surveys must have Theming enabled on the editor system that hosts the survey. Theming applied to the editor system will be inherited by the survey.

      • Full page surveys must have Theming enabled on the “Global Survey” system

    • Mobile/Decktop app limitations

      • Console surveys are only supported on web browsers. Mobile apps and desktop apps are currently not supported.

  • Theming limitations

    • Custom Theming for popup surveys is automatic and based on the selected editor system.

    • Custom theming for full page surveys requires manual setup in the Theming app using the Global Surveys Shadow System.

  • Rich text editor limitations

    • Rich text formatting is supported only for List View answer formats in Single Choice and Multiple Choice question types

    • Dropdown format answers do not support rich text

    • Spellcheck is active by default for all tich text editor fields, including question titles and descriptions

    • The dropdown modal for Single/Multiple Choice options is not a rich text editor, so spellcheck is not available there

  • Customizable Thank You page

    • Only available for surveys created after February 23, 2026

    • Surveys created before February 23, 2026 do not support this feature

      • Workaround: Duplicate an existing survey to enable the customizable Thank You page on the new version

    • This page does not currently support translations
