Configuration Fetching

When creating a Survey SDK in Engage Digital you need to specify the base URL of the bridge field (see Getting Started) which will be used to perform an HTTP request to fetch the survey configuration.

Upon survey creation, Engage Digital will perform a GET /configuration call on your bridge to fetch the survey configuration (e.g. if base URL of the bridge is https://survey.bridge.com then Engage Digital will perform a GET https://survey.bridge.com/configuration).

Response example

Here's an example of a valid Survey SDK configuration: 

{
  "id": "12345",
  "link": "https://link.tothesurvey.com",
  "status": "Opened",
  "questions": [
    {
      "id": "main_question",
      "text": "Are you satisfied with our customer service?",
      "main": true,
      "choices": [
        {
          "text": "Very satisfied",
          "value": "5"
        },
        ...
      ]
    },
    {
      "id": "multiple_choices_question",
      "text": "What can we do to improve our service?",
      "main": false,
      "choices": [
        {
          "text": "Faster response time"
        },
        {
          "text": "Better follow-up"
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "id": "free_text_question",
      "text": "Any other suggestion?",
      "main": false,
      "choices": []
    },
    ...
  ]
}
