voteNow

Version 1 This method allows you to vote on something by setting the reference_type and reference_value. {vote_type: rating, testimonial, tally} {vote_status: pending, approved, declined} {allowFrequency: how often a user can submit another vote for the same item: hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, annually, once or blank for no limit}

https://api.peoplevine.com/feedback.asmx/voteNow

For non required fields, you can either omit from the JSON string or set it to a default value
(e.g. String = "", Integer/Double = 0, Boolean = false, DateTime = 1900-01-01T00:00:00.000Z)

OUTPUT

By default, every API call returns an object of returnMessage as either XML or JSON depending on your content-type of the request.  With in the returnMessage structure the returnObject is specified above and differs based on the API meth.

Name Type Description
responseCode String This identifies the error that occurred for additional handling. Response codes starting with "A" are a success or "E" are an error.
message String Additional minor details on the response to display to your customers.
isError Boolean True if an error. False if succesful.
methodFailed String If there's an error, this is the method it failed at for debugging purposes.
extendedMessage String Additional instructions on how you can fix the error or what you can do with the return object.
reason String Explains why this error occurred or what was completed.
reponseTime Double How long it took to respond in seconds.
returnObject Double Returns item_no
{"responseCode": "", "message": "", "isError": false, "methodFailed": "", "extendedMessage": "", "reason": "", "responseTime": 0, "returnObject": {} }
