What do the different response statuses mean?

Updated April 16, 2026

Needs Review

All new responses will come into your account with the status "Needs Review". While a response has this status, it cannot be shared or displayed in any widgets. It is the same functionality as the "Private" status - just a different name so users on an account know that a response needs to be reviewed.

Private

Private responses are only visible within your account and cannot be displayed in widgets or otherwise shared. This status is the same as "Needs Review", just a different name to help segment out that a response has indeed been reviewed.
