IMPORTANT: Questionmark recommendeds using the Delivery Odata API (click here for documentation) for new integrations, not the QMWISe API. Although we currently continue to issue maintenance updates to this API to support customers with current QMWISe-based integrations, we are no longer adding new methods/functionality to QMWISe.

Applies to the following Perception versions: 
Perception 5.7

This method creates one or more questions from a list of question information supplied. If a question ID that is included in the information does not exist in the repository, a new question is not created.

The number of new questions created is returned. If a new question is created, then both a new A_Question record and its corresponding A_Outcome record will be created in the repository database.

The only information that must be provided for each new question is:

  • The question's unique question ID
  • The question's description
  • The question type for the question
  • The name of the topic or subtopic to which the question belongs
  • The number of distinct outcomes the question has
  • For each outcome:
    • The outcome number
    • The outcome name

New properties added to this method are:

  • Base
  • Language

A SOAP fault will be returned if a database error occurs at any point during processing the list.

Available in:
  • Version 5.2 +
