Overview

What Medallia Agile Research and Zapier do together

The integration links your Medallia Agile Research survey account to Zapier, so survey events can feed other tools and other tools can invite people to a survey. The automation is called a Zap: one trigger (the event that starts it), then one or more actions (what it does next), every time that event happens.

Three results cover most uses. Responses where your team works: New Complete Respondent starts the Zap for each finished survey, and the next step writes the answers into a spreadsheet row. A clean mailing list: Panelist Unsubscribed and Panelist Bounced pass opt-outs and failed invitations to the tool that holds your contacts. Invitations without exports: when a new contact appears in another app, Send Survey Invitation adds that person to your survey as a panelist.

All five triggers are instant: the survey tool reports the event to Zapier itself, so none of them waits for your plan's check interval, even on the free plan.

What Zapier does not do here: there is no search step, so a Zap cannot look up an existing panelist or a past response. There is one action only, so nothing can be edited or deleted in the survey tool from a Zap. Three other operations stay hidden in Zapier and are not offered in the editor, so this page leaves them out.

Vocabulary

Zapier words you will meet on this page

Seven terms are enough to read the rest of the page and the Zapier editor.

Zap
The automation itself: one trigger, then one or more actions that run every time the trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event that starts the Zap. Once the Zap is on, Zapier waits for it, here a survey response or a panelist event.
Action
The step that runs once the Zap has started: it writes, sends or moves something for you, such as a new panelist.
Task
The unit Zapier bills: one action your Zap completes successfully. Your plan's allowance counts those, nothing else.
Instant trigger
A trigger the app reports itself, the moment the event happens. A polling trigger, its opposite, is checked by Zapier on a timer.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap go on only when what arrived meets your condition, and stops it there otherwise.
Multi-step Zap
Any Zap beyond one trigger and one action. A filter or a second action makes one, and it then needs a paid plan.
Cost

What a Medallia Agile Research Zap really costs

The trigger never costs a task. Waiting for survey events costs nothing either: only an action that completes is billed.

  • Free plan100 tasks a month, Zaps of two steps
  • Premium appNo, works from the free plan
  • Triggers5, all instant
  • BilledEach successful action

Each action that succeeds counts as one task, so a Zap with three actions uses three times more than a Zap with one. An action that fails is not counted, and a few actions take more than one task. Medallia Agile Research is not a premium app, so it works on the free plan: 100 tasks a month, unlimited Zaps of two steps each. A filter or a second action makes the Zap multi-step, which needs a paid plan. The grid below is how often Zapier checks a polling trigger; it does not apply to this app's five triggers, which are all instant.

Connect

Connect your Medallia Agile Research account

  1. 01

    Open the Apps page

    In your Zapier account, go to Apps and click + Add connection. You need a Medallia Agile Research account, plus access to any surveys you do not own and want the Zap to touch.

  2. 02

    Find the app

    Type Medallia Agile Research in the dialog's search box, pick it in the results, then click Add connection. A new tab opens so you can sign in on the survey tool's side.

  3. 03

    Sign in and grant access

    Sign in to Medallia Agile Research in that tab and grant Zapier access to the account. The connection is saved once, then reused by every Zap built on this app.

First Zap

Your first Zap: completed responses in a spreadsheet

GoalEach time a respondent completes the survey you pick, add their answers as a new row in your spreadsheet, but only when they meet the condition you set.

  1. 01

    Build the trigger

    Create a Zap, pick Medallia Agile Research as the app that starts it and New Complete Respondent as the event. Select your connection, then the Survey to watch.

  2. 02

    Test the trigger

    Run the test. Zapier brings back the three most recent items, so complete the survey once yourself if nothing comes back, then pick that response.

  3. 03

    Add the filter

    From the plus icon, add Filter and set the field to look at, the rule and the value. Use a number rule on a number answer. The Zap is now multi-step and needs a paid plan.

  4. 04

    Add the spreadsheet row

    Add your spreadsheet app with its new-row action, choose the sheet, then map each answer from the response into its column.

  5. 05

    Test, then publish

    Test the row once and check the sheet. Then click Publish to switch the Zap on. Responses completed before that moment are not picked up.

Triggers

Medallia Agile Research triggers in Zapier

5 events start a Zap when something happens in Medallia Agile Research, and 5 of them are instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.

1

API Throttling Limit Reached

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when the throttling limit for your API requests has been reached.”

Fires when your account hits the limit the survey tool puts on the volume of requests it accepts. It is a warning signal about your account, not about a survey.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
to alert whoever looks after your integrations, with a message in the team chat, so the warning reaches a person instead of staying in the survey tool.
Watch out
the trigger tells you the limit was reached, nothing more; check at test what the event carries before writing your alert.
2

Panelist Unsubscribed

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a panelists chooses to opt out of receiving further emails from the sender.”

Starts the Zap when a panelist opts out of further emails from the sender. It is the event to pass on when other tools also write to the same person.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
to mark the contact as unsubscribed in the tool that sends your other emails.
Watch out
a Zap that answers with Send Survey Invitation for the same person would undo the point; keep the two jobs apart.
3

Panelist Bounced

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when an email invitation for a panelist has bounced.”

Reacts when an email invitation sent to a panelist bounces. The address did not accept the message, so the person never saw the survey.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
to flag the contact in your spreadsheet or contact tool so someone can fix the address.
Watch out
sending a new invitation straight back to the same address from the same Zap will not help; correct the data first.
4

New Complete Respondent

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a respondent has completed a survey.”

Hands each finished survey to your Zap, with the answers ready to be mapped into the next step.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
to collect complete responses in a spreadsheet, or to notify the team when a respondent finishes.
Watch out
the Survey field is required, so one Zap watches one survey; build a second Zap for another survey.
5

New Partial Respondent

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a respondent has submitted a page, occurs for each page a respondent completes.”

Fires each time a respondent submits a page of a survey, not only at the end. A survey with several pages starts the Zap several times for the same person.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
when early answers matter even if the respondent drops out before the last page.
Watch out
every page means one run, and every action in that run counts as a task; the Survey field is required here too.
Actions

Medallia Agile Research actions in Zapier

Medallia Agile Research gives you 1 action. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

1

Send Survey Invitation

Action

In Zapier“Add a new panelist to your survey. If your survey is Live and the CheckMarket email channel is active, a survey invitation will be automatically sent.”

Adds a person to your survey as a new panelist, from an email address that arrived in an earlier step.

When to use it
when contacts appear in another app and should be invited without an export and import.
Watch out
Email is required, and the invitation only goes out on its own when the survey is Live and the email channel of the survey tool is active. If one of the two is missing, check at test what happens.
When it breaks

When a Medallia Agile Research Zap breaks

Zapier links no help article to this app and lists no limit of its own, so the cases below are general Zapier limits applied to a survey tool.

Read each case as a general Zapier limit seen through your surveys. If a Zap stops behaving, see our Zapier troubleshooting guide.

  • No past responses

    A Zap only reacts to responses and panelist events that happen after you publish it. Earlier responses are not picked up; moving them is a separate job.

  • A Zap that sets itself off

    As a general precaution: a Zap that writes where its own trigger watches can restart itself and use up tasks. Check the chain when you combine these triggers with the action.

  • A flood of events

    If a large wave of panelists or responses arrives at once, after a bulk import for example, Zapier's flood protection can hold the batch back.

  • Invitations that never leave

    Send Survey Invitation only emails the panelist when the survey is Live and the email channel is active. Check both before blaming the Zap.

FAQ

Medallia Agile Research Zapier integration: questions

01Is the Medallia Agile Research Zapier integration free?
Yes. Medallia Agile Research is not a premium app, so it works on Zapier's free plan. That plan gives you 100 tasks a month and an unlimited number of Zaps, each limited to two steps: one trigger and one action. Sending every completed response to a spreadsheet fits within it. Add a filter, to keep only some answers, or a second action, and the Zap becomes multi-step, which needs a paid plan.
02How many tasks does a Medallia Agile Research Zap use?
One task per action that completes, and nothing for the trigger. A Zap that adds a row for each completed survey uses one task per respondent. With New Partial Respondent the count grows faster, because the Zap runs once per submitted page. An action that fails is not counted, and waiting for survey events costs nothing. A few actions on Zapier take more than one task, so check at test what yours costs.
03Is the Medallia Agile Research integration real time?
Yes, for all five triggers, which are instant. The survey tool reports each response or panelist event to Zapier itself, so the Zap starts right away whatever your plan. The interval grid of Zapier plans, 15 minutes on the free plan, only concerns polling triggers, and this app has none. In the editor, a Zap built on an instant trigger shows a lightning bolt, which is how you spot one.
04What is needed to connect Medallia Agile Research to Zapier?
A Medallia Agile Research account, plus read or write access on any survey you do not own and want the Zap to touch. In Zapier, open Apps, click + Add connection, search for Medallia Agile Research, click Add connection, then sign in in the tab that opens and grant access. Create at least one survey beforehand, since the response triggers ask you to pick one. Each response trigger watches the one survey you select.
05Why does a respondent start the Zap several times?
Because New Partial Respondent fires each time a respondent submits a page, not once per survey. On a survey with several pages, the same person starts the Zap once per page, and every action in each run counts as a task. If you only need the finished answers, use New Complete Respondent instead. If you need both, build two Zaps and keep their outputs apart. Each of the two Zaps asks for its own Survey.
06What if the Medallia Agile Research operation is not on the list?
Then Zapier cannot do it for this app today. The editor offers 6 operations: 5 triggers and 1 action, Send Survey Invitation, with no search step. So a Zap cannot look up an existing panelist, edit a response or delete anything in the survey tool. Two ways around it: let another app in the Zap carry the missing step, or start from a trigger that already brings the data you need.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Medallia Agile Research?
Decide by criteria, not by a winner. Availability first: on Zapier the app offers five instant triggers and one action, so check whether the other tool lists Medallia Agile Research and with which events. Then volume: on Zapier each successful action is a task, which adds up fast with partial responses. Finally the shape of the Zap: a filter or a second step needs a paid Zapier plan. Weigh those against your own survey volume.
