Surveymonkey creates a new survey programmatically?
How do I programmatically create new polls (with new questions and parameters) using the surveillanceymonkey API?
The only suitable API method I could find is create_flow, which works with existing polls / templates. I'm not sure if it allows changing polls to include new questions.

As mentioned, there was no way to do this in version 2 of the API. This is now possible in API v3.
See docs here:
https://developer.surveymonkey.com/api/v3/#surveys
Example:
Create a new survey:
POST /surveys
{
"title": "Example Survey"
}
This will return the survey_id of the survey. Use it to create a new page:
POST /surveys/<survey_id>/pages
{
"title": "My First Page",
"description": "Page description",
"position": 1
}
This will return the page_id of the page, use it to create a new question:
POST /surveys/<survey_id>/pages/<page_id>/questions
{
"family": "single_choice",
"subtype": "vertical",
"answers": {
"choices": [
{
"text": "Apple",
"position": 1
},
{
"text": "Orange",
"position": 2
},
{
"text": "Banana",
"position": 3
}
]
},
"headings": [
{
"heading": "What is your favourite fruit?"
}
],
"position": 1
}
Alternatively, if you already have the entire survey you want to create, you can create it all at once by POSTing to the original endpoint with all the payload:
POST /surveys
{
"title": "Example Survey",
"pages": [
{
"title": "My First Page",
"description": "Page description",
"position": 1,
"questions": [
{
"family": "single_choice",
"subtype": "vertical",
"answers": {
"choices": [
{
"text": "Apple",
"position": 1
},
{
"text": "Orange",
"position": 2
},
{
"text": "Banana",
"position": 3
}
]
},
"headings": [
{
"heading": "What is your favourite fruit?"
}
],
"position": 1
}
]
}
]
}
