Quiz Answer Submission Flow ​

This guide explains the complete workflows for creating and implementing both Open and InApp quizzes with the Attune API.

Open Quiz Flow ​

Open quizzes allow users to take a quiz without prior registration. The flow manages user identification through generated anonymous IDs.

Open Quiz Flow

Key Implementation Steps ​

  1. Admin creates the quiz via Web UI or via API - Create Quiz

    POST /api/v1/namespaces/:namespaceId/quizzes
  2. Obtain Quiz ID either from the creation response or via Web UI

  3. Get quiz public info to obtain relevant quiz information via - Get Public Quiz Info

    GET /api/v1/namespaces/:namespaceId/quizzes/:quizId/public
  4. Apply quiz via API by following these steps:

    • Generate an anon_id via - Generate Anonymous User ID
      POST /api/v1/namespaces/:namespaceId/quizzes/:quizId/users/anonymous/genId
    • Initialize quiz for anon_id (sets base data) via - Initialize Quiz
      POST /api/v1/namespaces/:namespaceId/quizzes/:quizId/users/anonymous/initQuiz
    • Post answer for each question as user is answering via - Post Answers
      POST /api/v1/namespaces/:namespaceId/quizzes/:quizId/users/anonymous/answers
    • Submit on last required question complete via - Submit All Answers
      POST /api/v1/namespaces/:namespaceId/quizzes/:quizId/users/anonymous/answers/submit
  5. Retrieve user answers if needed via - Get User's Answer

    GET /api/v1/namespaces/:namespaceId/quizzes/:quizId/users/:invitedUserUUID/answers

Implementation Notes ​

  • Important Limitation: In Open quizzes, there is currently no way to retrieve answers using custom_data identifiers (only available for InApp quizzes)

InApp Quiz Flow ​

InApp quizzes are designed for integration within applications where user identification and results retrieval are important.

Special Attributes ​

During quiz creation:

  • anonymous must be set to false
  • inapp must be set to true

Key Features ​

  • Programmatic access to user results via sessionId
  • Same basic flow as Open quizzes, but with enhanced user identification
  • Access to user results through both UI and API

URL Structure Differences ​

  • Uses /app instead of /aq in URLs
  • Includes a sessionId parameter
  • No genId request necessary
    • Uses /initQuiz to handle required logic

The rest of the quiz behaves in the same way as the Open type

Example URLs ​

User Results Retrieval:

https://dev.attune.co/sample-org-117/app/Qxt7ComyT7EuYFukAKLj?sessionId=1abe321ce312a3a1b2e3dbb

API Data Retrieval:

https://dev.attune.co/api/v1/namespaces/sample-org-117/quizzes/Qxt7ComyT7EuYFukAKLj/users/1abe321ce312a3a1b2e3dbb/answers

Restrictions ​

  • sessionId must be at least 5 characters long
