Who can request access to the Video Response feature?

University of Minnesota faculty, staff, or graduate students can request access to the Video Response feature.

The Video Response feature is not currently being offered to undergraduate students.  If an undergraduate is engaged in research with a faculty member, the faculty member can create a departmental account, request Video Response access for the departmental account, and grant the undergraduate access through the departmental account.

How are requests approved for the Video Response feature?

Video Response feature access requests are approved on an individual basis, based on the educational or business need.

Approval for Video Response feature access is more likely if requests:

  • Relate to use for academic research projects, such as faculty research, dissertation work, and thesis work.
  • Relate to use for UMN institutional research.
  • Relate to performing an appropriate administrative or research  function. 
     

Requests will be denied if they:

  • Relate to using the Video Response feature strictly for projects related to coursework (dissertation and thesis work not included).
  • Are from an undergraduate student.
  • Are only requests to test the functionality of the Video Response question type. If you are interested in learning more about Video Response question type, please contact us at [email protected].
  • Provide insufficient information to describe the use case (e.g., "I just need access").
  • Do not cite a specific project use case.
  • Are for a departmental account and are submitted by someone other than the Account Organization Head or Account Contact Person.

What happens when my Video Response access expires?

You'll have access to Video Response for two years after the approval of your last Video Response Access Request Form.

You will be notified prior to the expiration of your Video Response feature access by the UMN Qualtrics Brand Administrators. To extend your access, you can submit another Video Response Access Request Form.

If your Video Response access expires, you will still have access to the data that you collected while your account had Video Response features enabled.
