To add sentiment analysis to comments, please follow these steps:

If running sentiment (for the first time only), the page may take several minutes to analyze all comments. A message will display in the lower left of the page while loading. We recommend refreshing the page after roughly 5 minutes.
{% endhint %}
The page will display an overall sentiment score for all comments. Click through dimensions and items to view the overall score and sentiment scores per comment.
### **Export Comments with Sentiment**
