How to integrate Bubble.io with SurveyMonkey?

The integration of Bubble.io with SurveyMonkey can be quite handy if you want to conduct, analyze and present surveys from within your own web application built on Bubble.io. This step-by-step guide will help you accomplish this in the most efficient way possible.

Requirement: For this integration, it is essential to have an existing account on both SurveyMonkey and Bubble.io

Preliminary Steps: Get API Key From SurveyMonkey

Step 1: Login to your SurveyMonkey account.

Step 2: Go to the 'Developers' section on SurveyMonkey. The Developer's section is found at the bottom of the homepage.

Step 3: Create a new app in SurveyMonkey's developer console. Input all necessary details such as app name, description, app website, etc. and save changes.

Step 4: Now, on the settings page of the newly created application, you can find your Access Token and Secret Key.

Bubble.io Setup

Step 5: Login to your Bubble.io account and launch the Bubble editor.

Step 6: Navigate to the Plugins tab in the left sidebar of the Bubble editor.

Step 7: Click on '+ Add Plugins' and search for 'API Connector'.

Step 8: Add the 'API Connector' plugin. Using this, we can make API calls from bubble applications.

Configure API Connector for SurveyMonkey

Step 9: Navigate to the Plugins tab in the Bubble editor and find API Connector.

Step 10: Click '+ Add another API'. This will allow you to add details of the new API you want to connect - in this case, SurveyMonkey.

Step 11: Provide a name for the API, let's call it 'SurveyMonkey API'.

Step 12: Under the 'Authentication' tab, select the 'OAuth2 User-Agent Flow' as the type of authentication.

Step 13: This authentication type will need further details. Here, input the following:

  • The 'Token endpoint' which is https://api.surveymonkey.com/oauth/token.
  • The 'Authorization endpoint' which is https://api.surveymonkey.com/oauth/authorize.
  • The 'Client ID' and 'Client Secret' from the details you obtained from your SurveyMonkey App's settings (Step 4).

Initiating the API Setup

Step 14: Return to the API Connector plugin in Bubble.io and click on 'Add a call'.

Step 15: Name this API Call, for example, "Get Surveys".

Step 16: As the data type, choose 'Data' (instead of Action).

Step 17: For the verb, select 'GET'.

Step 18: Enter the SurveyMonkey API endpoint: https://api.surveymonkey.com/v3/surveys

Step 19: Check the 'Use as Action' box and click on 'Initialize Call'.

Testing API Call

Step 20: Now you should see a pop up which asks you to authenticate your app to connect with SurveyMonkey.

Step 21: After successful authentication, you should be able to see the data from SurveyMonkey loaded into your bubble application. You can view this as a sample in your API call's 'Response' section.

And, there you have it, you have now successfully integrated Bubble.io with SurveyMonkey. You are now ready to access SurveyMonkey data directly through your Bubble.io application, and use it to create surveys, fetch responses and more.

In the future, you can also add more API calls to access other elements of SurveyMonkey, like specific survey results, user responses, user details, etc. using similar steps. This integration indeed equips your application with a robust toolset to leverage survey data.

Bubble.io and SurveyMonkey integration usecase

Scenario: A university is planning to conduct a research survey among its students to evaluate remote learning efficiency during the pandemic. They've decided to use Bubble.io to create an attractive and user-friendly interface for this survey portal. To collect and analyze the data, they have decided to integrate it with their already in-use tool, SurveyMonkey.

Solution: Integrating Bubble.io with SurveyMonkey

Survey Portal Creation: The university's IT team uses Bubble.io to design an intuitive and engaging survey portal. It includes fields where students can enter their unique IDs, select their stream of study, and fill out their responses.

Setting Up the Integration: The IT team installs the SurveyMonkey plugin on Bubble.io and links it by using the SurveyMonkey API key. They then set up workflows within the platform that trigger upon the completion of a survey.

Data Collection Workflow: When a student completes the survey, the set workflow is activated. The submitted data, containing insights on students' remote learning experiences, is automatically sent to the SurveyMonkey platform via the configured plugin action.

Analysis on SurveyMonkey: SurveyMonkey collects this valuable data sent from Bubble.io. With the pre-configured tools on the platform, the university can now analyze the survey responses, enabling them to comprehend the strengths and weaknesses of remote learning.

Monitoring & Analytics: This integrated system also enables seamless tracking of response rates and engagement within SurveyMonkey. The university can observe the efficiency of their survey portal and the gathered statistics, driving data-backed decisions to improve remote learning protocols.

Benefits:

  • Efficiency: Automation of the survey process facilitates time saving and diminishes the potential for errors that can occur with manual data entry.
  • Seamless User Experience: By developing the survey portal with Bubble.io, they could ensure an engaging and straightforward user interface.
  • Comprehensive Analysis: With SurveyMonkey, they can perform in-depth analysis and generate reports on the collected data.
  • Data-Driven Insights: The integration provides valuable insights into students' remote learning experiences, hence allowing the university to make informed decisions for improvements.

By connecting Bubble.io with SurveyMonkey, the university can efficiently gather and analyze student responses, ride on the wave of their insights, and thus, drive improvements in their remote learning processes.
