In this article, we explain what happens when you remove a question from an already conducted survey.

Deleting a Question from a Survey
When you delete a question from a survey, all associated responses collected through that question are also permanently deleted.
As a result, any charts on your dashboard linked to this question will no longer display data.
Tip: To avoid losing data, use the "Hide Question" option instead. This ensures the question will not appear in the next survey cycle but retains the data on the dashboard for future analysis and comparison. -
Deleting a Chart from the Dashboard
Removing a chart from the dashboard only affects its visual representation; the data remains stored in the system.
If you need the chart again for future analysis, you can reintegrate the question into the dashboard and re-visualize the data.
By understanding these differences, you can manage your survey data and dashboards more effectively while ensuring important insights remain accessible.
