Questions

Overview

The Gather API supports three types of questions, each designed for different interview formats:

Audio Questions - Questions with text scripts that can be automatically converted to audio using text-to-speech (TTS) technology. These are used in standard video interviews where candidates record video responses to audio prompts.
Survey Questions - Multiple choice, yes/no, thumbs up/down, or free text questions used for screening and questionnaires. These can be added to interviews or used in standalone surveys. Perfect for pre-screening candidates or gathering structured feedback.
AI Text Questions - Text-based questions used in AI-powered interviews where candidates provide written responses that are evaluated by AI. Ideal for technical assessments and written evaluations.

Audio Questions

Audio questions are the building blocks of standard video interviews. You can create questions with text scripts that can be automatically converted to audio using text-to-speech (TTS) technology.

Create Audio Question

Create a new audio question with optional TTS audio generation. Endpoint: POST /qsi/gather/questions

}

The userId field is optional. If not provided, it will be resolved from your API credential. If you need to specify a different user as the creator, provide the userId field.

Audio Source: You must provide either:

audioURL (pre-recorded audio), OR
questionScript + narratorId (for automatic TTS generation)

Do not provide both audioURL and questionScript - if audioURL is provided, it will be used and questionScript/narratorId will be ignored.

Audio Generation

Audio questions support text-to-speech (TTS) audio generation:

TTS Providers: WellSaid or current TTS model
Async Processing: Audio generation happens asynchronously
Webhook Notifications: Use webhooks to be notified when audio generation completes
Pre-uploaded Audio: Alternatively, provide your own audioURL

When questionScript is provided with narratorId, the question is created immediately, but audioURL may be null until generation completes. Check the transcriptionStatus field to monitor generation progress.
