### FAQ

#### **Are feedback submissions without comments included in the metrics displayed on the Feedback Manager tiles?**

No, any feedback without a comment will not appear in the metrics reflected on the Feedback Analytics tiles. Only feedback submissions that include both a thumbs up/thumbs down response and a comment are counted in the **Feedback analytics** data.
