Steps
- Add Video from the question picker and explain what to record, why it is needed, and how it will be used.
Example recording entry screen. Preview is a layout check; saved answers, attachments, and completion require separate tests. - Open Question options and review Mark Optional and Recording → Maximum Duration (sec). Configure the offered duration control if needed.
Current video options from a synthetic development form. Review the controls offered for your selected question. - Preview the respondent flow on the devices you intend to support. Test permission denial as well as an allowed recording.
This is the recording entry screen. Recording, permission denial, playback, and saved attachments require separate tests. - Use a harmless test recording and verify the saved attachment in Results before launch.
Check before you rely on it
Request camera or microphone access only when the respondent chooses to record. Offer an appropriate alternative where practical.
If you need help

Contact support with the relevant screen, time, and a redacted description. Keep credentials and private respondent information out of screenshots.
