Single Participant - Multiple Survey Answers?

Hello,
Would it be possible to have a participant, answer a survey multiple times?

The use of tokens is confusing me: I believe I *do not* want to use tokens, as it would "limit" the participant to one-time answers.

So, if I have one participant registered, can he answer a survey multiple times?

Thank you

Tokens --> Allow multiple responses or update responses with one token

Thank you tpartner for the reply!
Currently performing various tests over here.


Maybe it would help if I could explain the use case.
Ideally, it would work like this:
  1. Participant Logs In to the system (so I need a login/password setup)
  2. Participant prepares 5-6 surveys, yet does not 'submit' them
  3. At a later date, the Participant recalls (via url with token?) previous prepared survey, with answers already filled
  4. Participant finishes survey, then submits

Can you guys help me achieve this?
I am checking out over here now how could I go about this.
Not sure if using tokens, or how.

Thank you!

In that case, you will need to give them 5 or 6 tokens as they will only be able to see their last survey with a given token.

Thank you Tony!
I am working on this... and will update on what I end up doing.

I have certainly been able to have one Participant, with Multiple Answers using your suggestion.
