Lime Survey Submit answer from Android app

In an Android app i have implement LimeSurvey,in which list of different Survey are displayed from lime survey admin panel. I am able to display questions of a survey but not getting any structure to submit user answer's of survey to LimeSurvey database. Any one can please help me how can i submit answer and in what structure lime survey accept response of survey.

As document suggest to add response in format -

sSessionKey (string) - The session key

iSurveyID (integer) - The survey id

aResponseData (array) - array/structure containing your response data

so my query is what the structure for aResponseData (array) , so it properly store in lime survey database.

Edit:

How to add answer of sub-questions.I am able to submit answer of simple question but how to send answer of subquestion and in Survey question type-L(List of radio with comment)how to submit comment.

Thanks in advance.

The only way I found to solve this was downloading the .sql database backup from the main taskbar and look for your table, which is *lime_survey_IDSURVEY*, and check for the columns which match with your questions, and use them for your mapping in the aResponseData. I'll leave you an example of that:

{"method": "add_response", "params": {"sSessionKey ": "ey2bv8v7zaw7uwj6fa9a8mmx9xqiikja", "iSurveyID ": 588636, "aResponseData ": {"588636X1X1":"Aja","588636X1X22":"Y" } }, "id": 1}

This will be the JSON that I send with my POST request, where 588636X1X1 is a column that match with a question, and "Aja" is the answer (in that case is a text-string), meanwhile, the other one, it's the same but it's a multiple choice question. As you can see, there is a pattern for the column names, 588636 it's my survey ID, X1 it's the group of the question, and X1 it's the ID for my question.

Hope it's useful.

You should be using the limesurvey remote control feature to call the webservices api for various tasks you want to perform: add_response in this case . Its documentation is here
