After all, we have constructs like inheritance, group \/ user permissions, permission levels and so on. This post will attempt to tackle some of the security questions that you may have asked when dealing specifically with SharePoint Survey security and permissions.<\/p>\n<p>We will go through each of the categories and analyze what SharePoint Survey permissions relate to in terms of functionality.<\/p>\n<p>In this example survey, we have taken the default settings but have changed the <strong>Survey Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Advanced Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Read access<\/strong> option to <strong>Read responses that were created by the user<\/strong> from default <strong>Read all responses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In a standard Team Site these Groups are generally created. We will review each group in turn, and see what a user can and cannot achieve when using a SharePoint Survey.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a list of the different SharePoint users and permissions.<\/p>\n<p><span><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"642\" width=\"682\" data-init-width=\"682\" height=\"263\" data-init-height=\"263\" title=\"31140-1\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/31140-1.png?_t=1648737045\" data-link-wrap=\"true\" data-width=\"682\" data-height=\"263\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"\">Everyone<\/h2>\n<p>This special group refers to anyone who is logged onto SharePoint. If you didn&#8217;t have Everyone, you&#8217;d need to add a every user in AD to a SharePoint Group.<\/p>\n<p><span><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"645\" width=\"304\" data-init-width=\"304\" height=\"218\" data-init-height=\"218\" title=\"31140-2\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/31140-2.png?_t=1648737045\" data-link-wrap=\"true\" data-width=\"304\" data-height=\"218\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>However if &#8216;Everyone&#8217; isn\u2019t part of a group then they won\u2019t be able to see the survey or any SharePoint site.

For example, by adding &#8220;Everyone&#8221; to the Team Site Members group then any logged on user will inherit those permissions.<\/p>\n<p><span><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"648\" width=\"193\" data-init-width=\"193\" height=\"109\" data-init-height=\"109\" title=\"31140-4\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/31140-4.png?_t=1648737045\" data-link-wrap=\"true\" data-width=\"193\" data-height=\"109\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"\">Excel Services Viewer<\/h2>\n<p>An Excel Services Viewer can access the site as a Visitor so they aren&#8217;t able to respond to the survey.&nbsp; They are unable to view any results in the interface by clicking &#8216;<strong>Show all responses<\/strong>&#8216; or &#8216;<strong>Show a graphical summary of responses&#8217;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"650\" width=\"785\" data-init-width=\"785\" height=\"317\" data-init-height=\"317\" title=\"31140-5\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/31140-5.png?_t=1648737045\" data-link-wrap=\"true\" data-width=\"785\" data-height=\"317\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"\">Team Site Members<\/h2>\n<p>As a member of this group, a user can <strong>respond to the survey<\/strong> through the interface.
