Hi,  
I was wondering if there is a possibility to internally code survey response-options (in single and multiple choice questions) numerically when creating a survey. E.g., so that instead of displaying answer-ID and corresponding text as response, there is a numeric value saved and exported in the csv-file?

Hi @miriam.wallimann

Unfortunately Ethica does not support this yet. We are working on this feature for our upcoming released likely later this year), but at the moment, we don’t have the feature.

Thank you,
