## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## Procedure

</table>    For details on how to configure a variable, see Service Catalog variables.

    **Important:**

    -   Updating the questionnaire text updates that text in both the user and clinician portals.
    -   If you deactivate a variable, then the question will be hidden in both the user and clinician portals.
    -   If you're creating a question, the new question isn’t displayed in the clinician portal by default. You must also update the pre-vaccine\_questionnaire widget by navigating to **All** &gt; **Service Portal** &gt; **Widgets**. For details on how to configure a widget, see Service Portal widgets.
4.  Click **Update**.
