Connect data over an API

Bring data into DataLion over APIs — configured per access profile. Integrate your own survey platform such as LamaPoll or Qualtrics and import the responses straight from your survey tool.

DataLion imports data over APIs — API settings are configured per access profile. Through survey-platform integration (e.g. LamaPoll, Qualtrics) you import responses directly from your own survey tool, so an interactive dashboard is built from the raw data automatically.

Data import over APIs

Instead of shuffling files back and forth, you connect your sources directly over an API. You configure the API settings per access profile — cleanly separated by use case and permission.

Data flows into your projects in a controlled way, and you stay in charge of which access is allowed to do what.

Connect survey platforms

DataLion integrates common survey platforms such as LamaPoll or Qualtrics: you import the responses directly from your own survey tool — with no intermediate export.

Important: this is an integration of your platform, not a DataLion panel. You keep your tool and your sample; DataLion handles analysis and reporting.

API data becomes a dashboard

Once the data has come in over the API, DataLion treats it like any other source: crosstabs, 50+ chart types and significance tests are available immediately.

Combined with scheduled imports, your reports refresh themselves — ideal for ongoing tracking studies.
