Make Modular Survey permissions trump Survey Level Permissions
None
Found out that when I give permission to people at the survey level it automatically trumps all other modular level permissions and anyone that does not have a specific permission to the survey is no longer able to see the survey data. In the same vein when creating a survey it automatically give me survey permissions. I have to go in and delete any survey permissions including myself for everyone else that has modular permissions to see the survey data.

Survey permissions are designed in a manner that individual survey level permissions trump/override module level permission for Survey.It has following behaviour in terms of permissions.
- The person who creates a survey has full permissions to that survey.
- Person for whom individual survey level permission are not defined for them Module Level permission works on the survey.
- In case of permission is specified for a particular person at a survey level it will trump/override module level permission.
This behaviour is intended for following reasons.
- Module Level permissions is generally assigned to lot of users.
- Each and every survey should have its own permissioning & security.
- In case if you don't specify permission for any user in a particular survey, Module level permissions is applied to it.
In order to solve your problem, please do not specify any permission at Survey level, it will apply module level permission.Let me know, if you have more questions on it.
Even if survey defaults you to permissions, it will also allow other people to view/edit survey based on their Survey module level permission. You don't have to go and delete your permissions in order to make it visible for other people.
Hope this gives you clarity on permissions.
