POST /api/survey
Open-ended interest survey: what would you want from hotspots, a newsletter, or anything else. No auth, no required email — built to be filled out by a human on /survey or called directly by an agent/script. Every response is read.
Request

} | field | type | notes |
|---|---|---|
message | string | Required. Anything — what you'd want from a newsletter, more API access, or something else entirely. Free text, open-ended. |
email | string | Optional. Only if you want a reply; omitting it is fine and expected. |
