Important Notes

  • Delighted’s API uses basic authentication with the username “api” and your API key as the password
  • Each Delighted account has a unique API key that provides access to all survey data
  • API keys should be kept secure and regenerated if compromised

Use Cases

1) Customer feedback automation

Automatically trigger Delighted surveys after key customer interactions such as purchases, support tickets, or feature usage to capture real-time satisfaction data.

2) Response aggregation and analysis

Pull survey responses from Delighted into your data warehouse or analytics platform to combine feedback data with product usage, customer demographics, and business metrics.

3) NPS score tracking

Sync NPS scores and promoter/detractor classifications to your CRM to enable sales and support teams to take action based on customer sentiment.

4) Automated follow-up workflows

Trigger automated workflows in other systems based on survey responses—such as routing detractors to customer success teams or sending thank-you messages to promoters.

5) Multi-channel feedback collection

Integrate Delighted with your communication platforms to send surveys via email, SMS, in-app, or link, and centralize all feedback data for unified reporting.

API Gotchas

  • Rate limiting: Delighted enforces a rate limit of 100 requests per 10-second window. Implement exponential backoff when you receive 429 rate limit errors.
  • API key security: The API key provides full access to your Delighted account. Store it securely and never expose it in client-side code.
  • Pagination: When fetching large numbers of survey responses or people, use pagination parameters (per_page and page) to avoid timeouts and ensure complete data retrieval.
  • Survey types: Delighted supports multiple survey types (NPS, CSAT, CES, etc.). Make sure to filter or handle responses appropriately based on the survey type you’re working with.
