Managed APIs & Questions

The DataSapien Mobile SDK can use various sources to collect MeData values. Scripts and Questions are two of those sources. Managed web APIs and reusable Questions are underlying functionality that enables having richer MeData Definitions.

Managed APIs​

Scripts can make use of a subset of standard JavaScript APIs including Fetch API which allows connection and authentication to web APIs: web based resources and web services. The DataSapien Orchestrator manages a list of APIs that scripts are allowed to access from a user device.

The main use-cases for script consumable Managed APIs is the ability to add new MeData sources.

Documentation pending.

Questions​

There are two kinds of questions in the platform.

  1. Some Questions are there just to collect the values of MeData Definitions. You create these when creating a Question Sourced MeData Definition.
  2. The Orchestrator allows you to have a Questions Library that you can reuse for different Journeys & Exchanges. These are there to speed up Journey & Exchange creation.
