This article is for an API Partner wanting to add or delete rows in a matrix question as part of updating a discloser’s questionnaire-response. 

 

Summary    

This endpoint allows API Partners to interact with the rows within matrix questions. Rows can only be added to dynamic matrix questions, and then, those rows can be deleted later on. 

Prerequisites: Valid subscription key, organization UUID and question ID (adding of row) OR row ID (deleting of row) for the respective Disclosure API environment. 

 

PUT Request (Adding of Row) 

Details how to add a row to a dynamic matrix question within a discloser’s questionnaire response. 

Note Row ID: When a row has been created using the PUT request then the UUID for the new row is returned as part of the success response message. This should be captured for future use to indicate the row has been created by the user. The UUID for the row is also returned within the GET questions request, if you want to capture the ID for rows created by the user in the portal directly. 

Guideline: 

  1. 1. Rows can only be added to dynamic matrix questions ("isDynamic" = true) 

  1. 2. When creating a row, two options are possible: 

  1. a. When row details are pre-set (“isPrepop" = true), then “rowId” must be specified in the request body as the ID of an existing row for within the question (See “Questionnaire: Questions > GET Request” section) 

  1. b. When row details are not pre- set (“isPrepop" = false), then “rowId” in the request body should be “null”.

GET/POST Requests

POST requests are not implemented for this endpoint as it is only possible to edit a single question within the “question” namespace.
