Good day!

I have created a Team Survey and set the last Poll/question with "Add a choice..." anonymously, however, I could not see the comments from the voters.

After the vote date is closed, User cells had this wording "anonymous", Vote cells had this wording " Make a comment anonymously". 

In Display Settings: I clicked all, except "Display results before poll is closed". In additional Settings: I clicked all, except "Enable Tiny URL"

 

 

 

 

 

What should I change in the setting? Please kindly advise.

Thank you for your kind attention. 

Best regards, Doris

Anonymous responses in the Confluence Questions or Polls macro are intentionally masked to all users, including the poll creator. When a respondent chooses to comment or vote anonymously, Confluence strips identity data and stores the input without a user reference. This means the creator can see the aggregated results but not who added each comment or which comment came from which voter. There is no configuration in the Polls or Team Survey macro that reveals anonymous comments after submission; this is by design to preserve confidentiality.
