Discover is designed to help you transform individual feedback items into testable ideas in Validate that you can then prioritize and communicate using Roadmaps. You can link several feedback items to an idea.

You can link customer feedback items to ideas in three ways:

• During the feedback submission process.
• From the details of an existing feedback item.
• From an individual idea in the ideas list.

Link from the feedback form

To link feedback to an existing idea during the feedback submission process, fill out the feedback submission form and then:

1. Select the Link ideas field in the form.
2. Enter keywords or phrases into the search.
3. Select the appropriate idea.
4. Select Link.

For more information about the feedback form, see Collect customer feedback.
