Vote on a poll
Submit a vote on a poll on behalf of the bot. The bot must be a member of the topic the poll was posted in.
Use the id values from the options array in the POST /v2/polls response as the optionId.
Constraints:
- Anonymous polls do not support voting via the API
- Votes cannot be cast on closed or expired polls
- Each {pollId, optionId, voter} combination is idempotent — re-submitting the same vote is a no-op
Request
- Base URLhttps://api.zenzap.co

- TypeScriptA function with typed inputs. Its response is checked against the schema.
Path parameters
The poll ID (returned as id in the create poll response)
Headers
HMAC signature of the request for authentication and replay protection.
Required only when authenticating with a static API key. If you are using an OAuth access token (issued by POST /oauth/token), omit this header — the JWT carries all the authentication and integrity guarantees.
Replay Protection: The signature includes a timestamp to prevent replay attacks. Requests with timestamps older than 5 minutes are rejected.
The signature payload differs by HTTP method:
- POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE: HMAC-SHA256 of {timestamp}.{body}
- GET: HMAC-SHA256 of {timestamp}.{uri}
The signature is calculated as:
- Get the current Unix timestamp in milliseconds
- Determine the payload:
- For POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE: Use {timestamp}.{body} where body is the request body
- For GET: Use {timestamp}.{uri} where uri is the full request URI (e.g., /v2/members?limit=10)
- Calculate HMAC-SHA256 of the combined payload using your API secret
- Hex-encode the output
- Include the timestamp in the X-Timestamp header
Example for GET request to /v2/members?limit=10:
timestamp = 1699564800000
payload = "1699564800000./v2/members?limit=10"
signature = HMAC-SHA256(secret, payload)
X-Signature: hex(signature)
X-Timestamp: 1699564800000
Example for POST request with body {"topicId":"123","text":"Hello"}:
timestamp = 1699564800000
payload = '1699564800000.{"topicId":"123","text":"Hello"}'
signature = HMAC-SHA256(secret, payload)
X-Signature: hex(signature)
X-Timestamp: 1699564800000
For multipart/form-data requests, sign the exact raw request body bytes (including boundaries and file bytes) as transmitted.
Unix timestamp in milliseconds when the request was created. Used for replay protection — requests older than 5 minutes are rejected.
Required only when authenticating with a static API key. Omit when using an OAuth access token.
