In the password management screen, you have three methods to send passwords.

If you know the email addresses for the respondents, click "Send Passwords to Respondents".

Enter a subject for your email and a personal message for your respondents on the left side of this window.

In the respondents field, enter the emails for each respondent, makings sure to hit enter/return between each address. 

The email will include the link to the survey.

Once all email addresses are added, click "Send" to send them each their personal password.

 

If you do not have a list of emails for the respondents, then you have two options on how to send the passwords to a client to distribute. 

Click on "Export" to download a spreadsheet of the passwords you can use to track their distribution or send to a client.
