Setting Up an Interview in FP Studio

Introduction

The Interviewer tool in FP Studio allows users to collect personal stories by sending a secure, shareable link to interviewees. This feature enables contributors to record responses, which are then stored in the user’s Library for further editing and transformation.

This guide walks through how to generate an interview link, customize settings, and share it with contributors.
