Generate an API key in Surveys API with the socialplanner/post.write scope and enter it into the Zapier App Connector to authorize requests for posting and management of social content by location.
In Zapier, create a new connection using your Surveys API credentials. Verify the location permissions and run a test to confirm the connection is active.
Endpoint 1: POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts — Create a new social post. Endpoint 2: PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Update an existing post. Endpoint 3: DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Remove a post. Endpoint 4: PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Partial update to a post. Additional endpoints (5–17) are available for future use.
Trigger on a new survey submission to automatically generate and publish a social post.
Actions: assemble post content from survey fields, attach media if available, and publish to the chosen location.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
Required: locationId, postContent; Optional: media, schedule_time
Trigger when a survey response is edited, prompting an update to the related social post.

This glossary explains core terms used in connecting the Surveys API with the Zapier App Connector, including endpoints, triggers, actions, and connections.
Definition: A specific URL and HTTP method pair used to perform an operation against the Surveys API.
Definition: An event in Surveys API that starts a Zapier workflow.
Definition: An operation performed by Zapier to create, update, or delete data via the API.
Definition: The authenticated link between Surveys API and the Zapier App Connector.
Idea: automatically generate a daily social post summarizing the latest survey results.
Idea: use reusable post templates and map location-specific fields for consistency.
Idea: trigger alerts when a post fails or a survey shows unusual results, with automatic remediation steps.
Obtain an API key from Surveys API, ensure the socialplanner/post.write scope, and securely store it in Zapier.
Connect Surveys API in Zapier, map fields, and define triggers for new survey responses and edits.
Run a test workflow, deploy, and monitor runs for successful executions or failures.
Yes. The required scope is socialplanner/post.write. You can request additional scopes if needed, but for posting you need this one. Keep your API key secure and rotate it regularly. In Zapier, test the connection to confirm permissions.
Yes. You can update a post after creation by editing the content via PUT to the specific post ID. If you change the underlying survey data, you can push updates to the post automatically or on demand. Always validate post content after updates.
The connector currently supports endpoints 1–4. The rest (5–17) are reserved for future expansion. You can plan workflows around creating, updating, deleting, and patching posts within the listed endpoints.
In Zapier App Connector, you authenticate by creating a connection with Surveys API credentials. You may be prompted to choose a location and authorize the app to access posting endpoints. Run a test to verify connectivity.
Deleting a survey does not automatically delete its posts unless you set up a dedicated automation. You can configure a separate rule to remove posts when a survey is retired or use a cleanup workflow.
Yes. This is a no-code integration. Use the Zapier UI to connect Surveys API, define triggers and actions, and map fields without writing code.
Post content customization is done by mapping survey fields to the post body, including title, message, and media attachments. Templates can help enforce consistency.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
