Regarding Chatter Poll

Hello,

Hi,

 

You can create Chatter Polls using the Chatter REST API or Connect in Apex (which is dev-org only in the Spring 13 release). The documentation for the Spring release (which is rolling out this weekend and the next couple weekends) of both is found here: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/chatterapipre/index.htm

 

In the Chatter REST API you can:

- post a new poll feed item to a feed using a POST to /chatter/feeds/<feed type>/<subject id>/feed-items

- retrieve info about a poll and vote on it using /chatter/feed-items/feedItemId/poll

 

In Connect in Apex you can:

- post a new poll feed item to a feed using ChatterFeeds.postFeedItem(String communityId, FeedType enum feedType, String subjectId, FeedItemInput feedItem, BinaryInput feedItemFileUpload) where your FeedItemInput holds a poll attachment

- vote on a poll using ChatterFeeds.voteOnFeedPoll(communityId, feedItemId, myChoiceId)

 

Hope this helps,

- Chris
