API -- access poll results?

[Clifford Champion]

Hi,

It seems the documentation at http://api.polleverywhere.com/ might be incomplete? Is there a way to access the results of a poll, and if so how?

Thanks,

[Brad Gessler]

HI Cliff,

Click through to your "Result History" and you'll see a link that looks something like, "http://www.polleverywhere.com/polls/LTI4MTM4NDc3NQ/results"

Toss .json/.xml/.csv at the end of that and you'll see results:

http://www.polleverywhere.com/polls/LTI4MTM4NDc3NQ/results.json

Now for the disclaimer: this is a bit of a hack, so we can't guarantee that we won't break this without notice. Also, don't ping this URL more than once per 3 seconds. Thanks!

Hi Cliff,

We just updated our API to support this. Details at http://api.polleverywhere.com/#retrieving-poll-results.

You'll want to change the URLs in your app for your hack to work with our official API.
