Feedback Templates are the package of configuration choices made by the administrator that form the rating and feedback experiences for the end user. Each template defines the method in which it is initiated, by whom it is initiated, and whom it will rate. These templates exist behind-the-scenes for the end user, while guiding them and minimizing friction.
Prior to editing a feedback template, a best practice is to configure your rating scales.
