Survey example: API Developers survey about integration ease

Create conversational survey example by chatting with AI.

This is an example of an AI survey about Integration Ease for API developers—designed to help you gather smarter product feedback. You can see and try the example, explore how it works, and experience a new way to engage with developer audiences.

We all know the pain of creating effective API developers integration ease surveys: they often miss context, get low-quality responses, or simply take too long to build.

Specific powers effortless, conversational surveys for technical teams—every tool on this page brings our expertise in AI-driven user research.

What is a conversational survey and why AI makes it better for API developers

When you're trying to understand how developers experience API integration, the usual survey pitfalls crop up: unclear feedback, incomplete technical context, or answers that leave you guessing about root causes. Nearly 50% of API developers cite integration issues as their top barrier—but standard forms rarely dig deep enough to uncover exactly why. [1]

This is where AI survey generators, like those from Specific, shine. Our approach uses conversational surveys built by AI—so you spend less time writing and structuring questions, and get richer, more useful replies.

Easily misses technical nuance or context

Tailors questions automatically for developers and integration topics

Static, form-like feel

Conversational, chat-style interaction for higher engagement

Why use AI for API developers surveys?

  • You’ll get context-rich responses—AI can clarify edge cases, dig into legacy compatibility issues (a problem for over 60% of devs [3]), or ask about security pain points, so you won’t leave important insights on the table.

  • No more time wasted copy-pasting responses into spreadsheets—analysis is automated, themes are spotted instantly.

  • Specific’s conversational surveys deliver a best-in-class experience, making feedback feel like a natural chat, not a clinical form. You can see smart branching questions in action, and learn what to ask API developers about integration ease.

  • If you want to design a fully custom survey, you can always start with the AI survey generator from scratch.

By focusing on actual developer workflows and obstacles—like the 60% who struggle with compatibility—you’ll get feedback that helps you improve integration, not just surface generic complaints. Curious about creating one? Here’s how to create an API developers survey about integration ease using AI.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

The difference between a forgettable survey and one that gets you actionable insight usually comes down to follow-up questions. With Specific, the AI acts like a probing expert—if someone gives a vague answer, it instantly asks for details, all in the same conversation. This means you get the full context on integration pain points or compatibility issues—not just surface-level data.

These AI-driven follow-ups are a big deal. Without them, you can end up in situations like:

  • API developer: “It was tough to get things working with your OAuth.”

  • AI follow-up: “Can you share what about the OAuth flow was confusing or where it broke down for your use case?”

  • API developer: “Some endpoints returned errors.”

  • AI follow-up: “Which endpoints caused issues, and what kind of errors did you encounter? Was this related to security, compatibility, or documentation?”

If you skip follow-ups, you’re stuck guessing at what “errors” or “tough” actually mean—which stops your product team from making real improvements. With AI-driven questions, you’ll get the detail you need the first time. You can read more about automatic AI follow-up questions and how they fuel deeper insights.

Want to see the difference for yourself? Try generating a survey and experience how fluid and probing the conversation feels.

With every dynamic follow-up, the survey becomes a real conversation—delivering a true conversational survey experience, not just a static form.

Easy editing, like magic

Editing your AI survey is refreshingly easy—just chat with the AI editor and describe what you want (“Add a question about API throttling,” or “Use a friendlier tone”). Specific instantly rewrites, adds, or restructures the survey with expert-level precision, so you don’t waste time fussing with logic or phrasing. Need to tweak follow-up intensity or clarify security terminology? Edits happen in seconds—see the AI survey editor in action, or customize your own survey using our AI survey builder.

Delivering your API developers integration ease survey

How you deliver feedback requests matters—especially for developer audiences juggling complex tasks. You can choose between:

  • Sharable landing page surveys: Perfect for posting links in a developer Slack, GitHub repo, or email update—great when you want broad outreach or to follow up with an open beta community.

  • In-product surveys: Show the survey directly inside your developer portal, dashboard, or API docs widget. This is ideal for catching integration feedback right at the moment someone hits an obstacle or completes an integration—nearly 50% of devs identify these touchpoints as make-or-break. [1]

For API integration topics, in-product surveys often shine, since they’re context-aware and can trigger after key integration events. That said, sharable landing pages are fantastic for async interviews or capturing feedback outside your core app.

Effortless AI survey analysis and automated insights

Specific analyzes all your survey responses with AI—summarizing developer feedback, detecting underlying themes, and extracting actionable insights fast. No more laborious spreadsheets or manual review. Features like automatic topic detection and chat-with-AI make analyzing survey responses with AI a breeze—just ask questions about your results and the system delivers clear, prioritized findings, even for open-ended integration pain points.
