I tried the example both from https://api.qualtrics.com/guides/reference/surveyDefinitions.json/paths/~1survey-definitions~1%7BsurveyId%7D~1questions/post and https://api.qualtrics.com/guides/docs/Guides/Common%20Tasks/building-surveys.md , but none of them works.How do I create a question using python code? Thanks!

Hey xxbidiao,I use this API call to create questions in Python, and it works fine for me.One thing I found helpful was to use GetQuestion on an existing question in the survey to pull the question definition, in order to understand how CreateQuestion expects the JSON body to look.This is what my python function looks like:import requestsdef createQuestion(surveyId,blockId,payload):url = "{0}survey-definitions/{1}/questions?blockId={2}".format(Q_baseUrl,surveyId,blockId)response = requests.post(url, headers=Q_headers, data=json.dumps(payload))if response.json()['meta']['httpStatus'] != "200 - OK":print("API Error - See response:",response.json())print("API Error - See url:",url)print("API Error - See payload:",json.dumps(payload))raise Exception("API Error")return responseSomething that I found was important was to remember to convert the payload to JSON. In line 3 you can see I use json.dumps(payload)
