What permission is needed for editing a survey's email templates?

We have base surveys which we copy for subscribers. We then make the subscriber an administrator of the new survey, with limited permissions. (Responses, statistics, tokens)

We cannot find any combination of acceptable permissions that allows the subscriber to change the email templates for the survey. Selecting the "edit email templates" menu item brings up the template editor, but there is no "save" or "save and close" button available, only "close".

Needing to re-edit the template each time invitations or reminders are sent is very non-optimal.

What permission is needed to allow the subscriber to do this?

Thanks,
Jack

You will need to allow "Update" for "Survey Content".

Cheers,

Thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately for us, it is not an acceptable option, as we cannot allow the administrator to modify the survey questions, groups, and answers. Seems an odd place for this permission, as the email templates are text elements of the survey metadata, not part of the survey itself.

Oh, well.

Thanks again for the information.
Jack
