Logging In & Resetting Your Password
SurveyMethods uses a secure, hosted sign-in page to protect your account. This guide covers how to log in, sign out, reset a forgotten password, and change your password from inside the app.
Logging In
When you open SurveyMethods, you’re taken to the secure sign-in page.
- Enter your email address (your username) and password
- Click Continue to sign in
- You’ll land on your Survey Home dashboard
Your session stays active while you work. If it expires, you’ll simply be returned to the sign-in page to log in again.
Resetting a Forgotten Password
If you can’t remember your password, you can reset it from the sign-in page:
- On the sign-in page, click Forgot password?
- Enter the email address for your account
- Check your inbox for a password-reset email
- Click the link and choose a new password
- Return to SurveyMethods and log in with your new password
The reset link is time-limited. If it expires before you use it, just request a new one.
Changing Your Password While Logged In
If you know your current password and want to update it:
- Click your profile icon in the top-right corner and choose My account
- Under User Profile, click Change your password
- Enter your current password
- Enter and re-enter your new password
- Click Submit
Your current password is verified before the change is saved.
