No-code setup is possible with standard App Connector features, allowing you to connect Surveys API to Accelevents through a guided UI. If you need deeper customization, you can still use API keys and tokens to tailor the integration. Always start with the built-in templates and test in a sandbox environment. The goal is a reliable, low-friction workflow that scales as you grow. If you require advanced routing or conditional logic, you can add additional triggers and actions using the integration platform, while maintaining strong credentials management and monitoring.
The primary endpoints included are the four social-posting actions: POST to create, PUT to update, DELETE to remove, and PATCH to modify parts of a post. These cover the typical publish, edit, and remove flows between Surveys API and Accelevents. Other endpoints can be incorporated as your use case expands, but start with these core operations for a stable setup. Always map locationId and post content fields carefully to ensure data integrity and predictable results.
Security is driven by standard API credentials (keys or OAuth tokens) and least-privilege access. Store credentials securely, rotate them regularly, and monitor for unusual activity. Use HTTPS for all calls and enable logging and alerting to detect failures early. Never embed credentials in client-side code or public repositories. Consider implementing IP allowlisting and token expiration policies to further reduce risk.
Yes. You can schedule posts and define timing in Surveys API, with Accelevents reflecting the schedule. Use the schedule_time field to plan ahead, and ensure time zone consistency across systems. Test scheduled posts to confirm they publish at the intended times and adjust as needed. Automating scheduling helps maintain a steady content cadence without manual intervention.
You can update content, media, or timing of a post using the PUT or PATCH actions. Changes propagate to the connected channels and analytics. Keep in mind that some platforms may cache content; allow a brief propagation window and re-check post status after updates. Maintain a change log to track revisions for auditing and performance analysis.
If a post fails, review the error response from Surveys API and retry according to your error handling rules. Implement exponential backoff to avoid spamming endpoints. Use logs and dashboards to identify root causes, such as missing fields or invalid IDs, and fix data mappings accordingly. Set up alerting so your team is notified of failures promptly and can take corrective action.
Analytics are available in both Surveys API and Accelevents dashboards. You can cross-reference post performance metrics, reach, and engagement across platforms. Use the integration to route data into your analytics workflows and generate unified reports that reflect multi-channel impact. If you need deeper insight, export data periodically and combine it with event-level details for custom KPI tracking.
