**Description**  
The Zoom survey and poll results can be retrieved through poll API; is there a way to identify a poll vs survey, if there were multiple polls and a Survey?

**Which Endpoint/s?**  
/report/webinars/{webinarId}/polls

Hey @smachado

Thanks for posting on the Zoom Devforum! I am still learning, but I will try my best to help answer your question. 🙂

We are looking for an API which can return survey responses. This API should be similar to /v2/report/webinars/{{webinarId}}/polls but should return survey responses.

Hey @smachado,

Can you clarify what you mean by survey?

Do you mean the end of meeting feedback survey?

If so, it is the feedback endpoints:

I mean- like polls, we can create survey for webinar in zoom; I guess the attendee is shown the survey at the end of the webinar. We did not find means of gathering survey results through API.

Hey @smachado,

Have you had a chance to check out our **Dashboards \> List Client Meeting Satisfaction** endpoint?:

> **[List Client Meeting Satisfaction - Dashboards - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards/listmeetingsatisfaction)**

> If the End of Meeting Feedback Survey option is enabled, attendees will be prompted with a survey window where they can tap either the Thumbs Up or Thum...

This might be more in line with what you’re looking for!

Thanks,  
Will
