View OpenAPI Document

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI document for Crowdsignal API, keeping it validated and agent-ready.

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for Crowdsignal API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. Crowdsignal is an Automattic-owned polls, ratings, and surveys product, popular with WordPress publishers. The API exposes 16 POST endpoints for creating, updating, listing, and deleting polls, collecting and resetting votes, retrieving comments, moderating comments, and managing account and folder metadata. Authentication is by partnerGUID query parameter rather than an Authorization header.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Crowdsignal API API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Programmatic Poll Creation for Editorial Workflows

Auto-publish polls alongside articles in a CMS by calling POST /CreatePoll with the question and answer set, then embedding the returned poll into the article body. Editorial ops teams use this to remove the manual UI step from a high-frequency publishing flow, and POST /UpdatePoll handles late edits to either the question or the answer choices.

Create a Crowdsignal poll with question 'Which release notes feature stands out?' and three answer choices, returning the poll ID

Vote and Comment Aggregation

Aggregate poll results into a reporting dashboard by polling /GetPollResults at regular intervals and pulling per-vote breakdowns through /GetPollVotes. Editorial and audience-research teams use this to push poll data into BI tools, and /GetPollComments plus /ModerateComment let a moderator clean up spam without touching the Crowdsignal UI.

Fetch results for poll ID 12345 via /GetPollResults and reject any pending comments via /ModerateComment whose body contains a banned word

Multi-Property Polling Account Management

Manage a single Crowdsignal account that powers polls across many properties by listing folders with /GetFolders and updating account-level settings via /UpdateAccount. Larger publishers organise polls by property or campaign through folders so reporting stays clean.

List Crowdsignal folders and update the account email address to ops@example.com

AI Agent Survey Result Summaries

An AI agent assembles a Monday-morning summary of the prior week's poll activity by calling Crowdsignal through Jentic. The agent searches for the crowdsignal_get_poll_results operation, executes against the team's vaulted partnerGUID, and joins the results with poll titles to produce a markdown summary. Jentic injects the partnerGUID query parameter so the agent never sees the raw key.

Use the Jentic SDK to fetch results for every poll created in the last 7 days and summarise top-voted answers per poll

Why though Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

The Crowdsignal partnerGUID is held encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive a scoped execution token and Jentic appends the partnerGUID query parameter at request time so the raw key never enters the agent's context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic with intents like 'create a Crowdsignal poll' or 'get poll results' and Jentic returns the matching Crowdsignal operation with its input schema, removing the need to read the Crowdsignal docs.

Time to first call

Direct Crowdsignal integration: half a day for partnerGUID setup and the unusual all-POST API shape. Through Jentic: under an hour — search, load, execute.

Related APIs

Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.

Complementary

crowd.dev API

crowd.dev tracks community activity that can include responses to Crowdsignal polls

Use Crowdsignal to collect poll responses and crowd.dev to log those responses as community activities tied to a member.

Complementary

Crove API

Crove generates documents that can summarise Crowdsignal poll results into a templated report

Pair Crowdsignal results data with Crove document templates when an agent needs to produce a recurring polled-results report.

Complementary

Cron-job.org API

cron-job.org schedules recurring HTTP calls into Crowdsignal for periodic results sync

Use cron-job.org to schedule a daily Crowdsignal /GetPollResults call when an agent doesn't host its own scheduler.

FAQs

Specific to using Crowdsignal API API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Crowdsignal API?

Crowdsignal does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Crowdsignal API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

What authentication does the Crowdsignal API use?

The Crowdsignal API authenticates via a partnerGUID query parameter rather than a header — your API key is appended to each request as ?partnerGUID=YOUR_KEY. Through Jentic the partnerGUID is held encrypted in the vault and Jentic appends it at request time so it never enters the agent's context.

Can I create a poll and retrieve its results through the API?

Yes. POST /CreatePoll creates a poll, and POST /GetPollResults returns aggregated results for a poll ID, while POST /GetPollVotes returns the per-vote breakdown for analysis.

How do I create a poll through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'create a Crowdsignal poll', load the operation schema for POST /CreatePoll, and execute with the question and answer set. Jentic appends the partnerGUID query parameter automatically.

How many endpoints does the Crowdsignal API expose?

Sixteen POST endpoints covering polls, votes, results, comments, comment moderation, accounts, folders, and the /pdInitiate and /GetUserCode bootstrap calls.

Can I moderate poll comments through the API?

Yes. POST /GetPollComments lists comments on a poll and POST /ModerateComment approves or rejects a specific comment, so a moderation pipeline can run without using the Crowdsignal UI.
