How to take a survey using EX directory via the API? | XM Community
Skip to main content

We're looking for a way to take surveys with participants from our EX directory via the API. We tried the survey sessions API but it seems to only support simple surveys that do not allow participants.
I know there's an API available for generating survey links but it requires a mailing list or contact id which both do not exist within the EX directory.

  1. Is it possible to generate unique links for surveys for EX another way programmatically?

  2. Is there an API available to know the list of participants tied to a survey?

  3. Is there a way to know whether a participant has responded to a survey via API?




Hi Zephye,
There is an EX API here: https://api.qualtrics.com/49296acbae3d6-ex-ap-is
Looks like it can be used to get participants, which also contains information as to whether they have completed the survey.
The only endpoint I'm aware of that can generate links typically requires a mailing list as you've noticed. There is an option to generate links for a transaction batch - I am not familiar with these but perhaps you could use this as a workaround?
Good luck!
