## TL;DR

POST /surveys with a title to create the survey (the response carries the survey id), then POST /surveys/{survey_id}/pages to add pages, and add questions and options under those pages. This is possible in API v3.

## Fix

1. POST /surveys with a title to create the survey (the response carries the survey id), then POST /surveys/{survey_id}/pages to add pages, and add questions and options under those pages.
   Expected: You get the expected result; the problem is gone.

## When to use

- You are setting up or using this SurveyMonkey feature.
- The symptom matches: create a new survey programmatically with the v3 API.

## When NOT to use

- Unrelated SurveyMonkey issues (different feature, different failure).
- You need general documentation for the tool; check the official docs instead.

## Compatibility

Reported against SurveyMonkey.

## Variant phrasings

### create a new survey programmatically with the v3 API

## Why it happens

Stack Overflow question: the v2 API only had create_flow for existing surveys/templates; the question is whether surveys with new questions and options can be created programmatically at all.

## Edge cases

- If your error message differs even slightly, this is probably a different issue; search the exact text.
- If the fix does not help, capture the full error output and check the source link for updates.
