Hi,
I made a mistake and some how started an anonymous survey- a survey that linkage between the data to the attributes is a MUST.
Is there any way to link those respondents back and solve this crises?
Nope, no chance. Otherwise the Anonymous-Feature would be a lie. If you run an anonymous survey, you can't link back results to the attributes in the token table. That is on purpose. It is actually what the anonymous feature does.

Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

I don't know how many have already participated in the survey. If it is only a few, I would download their responses and save then. Then I would deactivate the survey and start it new as non-anonymous. I would ask everyone to take part again and tell them that there was a problem. Now if most have already respondet, I guess this is no solution.
