API Update

Posted by Filed in: API/Widgets/Plug-ins, SurveyGizmo News, SurveyGizmo Updates

Hey Everyone!

Just a quick note to let everyone know that tomorrow several updates to the API will be going live at 5pm MT. We are adding five new functions to the survey API — and making several small modifications to the existing calls. Keep an eye on the API documentation page at 5pm on July 30th for the latest changes (this release will be version 1.5).

Here is a quick summary of the changes:

New Call: sgAddContact – This call will add or update (upsert) a contact to an email invitation in SurveyGizmo.

New Call: sgSingleSend – This call will add or update (upsert) a contact to an existing email invitation in SurveyGizmo — it will also send them the initial invite message for that campaign.

New Call: sgCreateSurvey – This call, available at the Enterprise level, will allow you to create a survey based on an XML schema you provide in the call.

New Call: sgCopySurvey – This call, available at the Enterprise level, will allow you to copy a survey that exists in your account.

New Call: sgSetSurveyStatus – This call can be used to launched and closed surveys programatically.

Also, we have added a limit on the number of records that can be pulled with each the sgGetResponseList call. The API call will now limit any one query to 500 responses at a time. To make polling our service easier, we now order the records newest to oldest and you can use our new “start” parameter to loop through your entire data. Please see our updated documentation for this function.

Happy Surveying!
