Preview your videoask before sharing it with your audience

Before sharing your videoask with the world, make sure to preview it first to check whether it's working the way you want it to.

If you come across anything that's not quite right, you can always go back and make some changes. When previewing your VideoAsk, you can even answer the questions and navigate through it just like your respondents would. And if you've set up any fancy features like Logic, this is the perfect time to test them out and make sure everything is running smoothly.

Note: When testing your videoask in preview mode, responses won’t be collected and won’t appear in your inbox. However, it’s worth noting this exception: If you’ve used a calendar answer type, the calendar won’t be in preview mode and respondents will be able to schedule bookings.
