Let’s assume, there is a survey being conducted for a month. After the first half of the month, you've gathered more than 100 responses. Now, you want to look at the data collected up to that point. To do this, you can use a feature called 'Un-Published Survey Discard Data' by following the below steps :

Step 1: Go to the ‘Surveys’ section. It will show the list of all surveys created in the account.

Step 2: Move towards the Status column of the survey that you want to stop the incoming data from coming and hit UnPublish.

Step 3: On Unpublishing the survey, the responses that will be filled in won’t show up under the Responses section.
Simply put, when data is being uploaded from the field, while the survey is unpublished, then that data wouldn't get uploaded/seen in the Responses section.

The user then can review all the data and work on it.
Once the user has reviewed it, he/she can then publish the survey if they want to.
The responses that are uploaded after unpublishing the survey won’t show up in the Responses section later.

Note - This doesn’t affect the data collection process on the field.
