Working with Polls

PreviousWorking with TransactionsNextWorking with Staking

Make sure to implement the , or else these examples will not work!

Retrieve poll question

You can retrieve any poll question from Chiliz Chain, provided that you have the poll's contract address.

Before you run this blockchain call, you need to know the poll's ID.

You can use the GET /polls/ endpoint to retrieve it. .

import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';
import { abi as survey3ABI } from './Survey3ABI.json';

const client = createPublicClient({
  transport: http('YOUR-RPC.com'),
});

const pollAddress = '0xPollAddress'; // Replace with the actual poll contract address

// Returns question text
async function getQuestion() {
  const question = await client.readContract({
    address: pollAddress, // Poll contract address
    abi: survey3ABI, // Poll conttract ABI
    functionName: 'question', // Function to retrieve the question
    args: [],
  });
  return question;
}

// Example usage
getQuestion().then(console.log);

Retrieve poll answers

You can retrieve all poll answers from Chiliz Chain, provided that you have the poll's contract address.

As of May 2025, you cannot retrieve poll answers media (such as pictures and videos) via this blockchain call.

We are working on this for the next version of our survey smart contract. This is planned for end of 2025.

import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem';
import { abi as survey3ABI } from './Survey3ABI.json';

const client = createPublicClient({
  transport: http('YOUR-RPC.com'),
});

const pollAddress = '0xPollAddress'; // Replace with the actual poll contract address

// Returns a list of answers with id, total votes and total amount of tokens used in votes
async function getAnswers() {
  const answers = await client.readContract({
    address: pollAddress, // Poll contract address
    abi: survey3ABI, // Poll conttract ABI
    functionName: 'getAnswers', // Function to retrieve the answers
    args: [],
  });
  return answers;
}

// Example usage
getAnswers().then(console.log);

Allow a user to vote on a poll

You can allow a logged-in user to vote a specific Socios.com poll.

We also recommend to check whether the user has a token or not before allowing them to vote, because if they don't, their vote will be rejected at the smart contract level.

This is a code-based alternative to the POST /poll/{pollId}/vote endpoint, which was deprecated from the Socios.com API in Q1 2025.

import { createWalletClient, privateKeyToAccount } from 'viem';

const privateKey = '0xSenderPrivateKey'; // Replace with the sender's private key
const account = privateKeyToAccount(privateKey);
const walletClient = createWalletClient({
  account,
  transport: http('YOUR-RPC.com'),
});

async function vote(id, weight) {
  const txHash = await walletClient.writeContract({
    address: '0xPollAddress', // Replace with the poll contract address
    abi: survey3ABI, // Poll contract ABI
    functionName: 'vote', // Function to cast the vote
    args: [id, BigInt(weight)], // Replace 'id' with answer id and 'weight' with the amount of tokens that should be used to cast the vote
  });
  return txHash;
}

// Example usage
vote('dab3d446-959f-47e7-8789-f618d969de1e', 1).then(console.log);

Retrieve user vote on a poll

You can know whether a user has already voted on a specific poll or not, and if they have then you can retrieve which answer they have selected.

This is a code-based alternative to the GET /poll/{pollId} endpoint, which was deprecated from the Socios.com API in Q1 2025.

import { createPublicClient, http, keccak256 } from 'viem';
import { abi as survey3ABI } from './Survey3ABI.json';

const client = createPublicClient({
  transport: http('YOUR-RPC.com'),
});
const pollAddress = '0xPollAddress'; // Replace with the actual poll contract address
const userAddress = '0xUserAddress'; // Replace with the user's wallet address

// Returns hashes of answerIds that the user voted on
async function getUserVoteHashes() {
  const votes = await client.readContract({
    address: pollAddress, // Poll contract address
    abi: survey3ABI, // Poll contract ABI
    functionName: 'getUserAnswers', // Function to retrieve the answers that the user voted on
    args: [userAddress], // User's address whose votes you want to fetch
  });
  return votes;
}

// Returns votes in plain text
async function getUserVotesPlainText() {
  // fetch all answers
  const answers = await client.readContract({
    address: pollAddress, // Poll contract address
    abi: survey3ABI, // Poll contract ABI
    functionName: 'getAnswers', // Function to retrieve the answers
    args: [], // User's address whose votes you want to fetch
  });

  // fetch user's votes
  const votes = await client.readContract({
    address: pollAddress, // Poll contract address
    abi: survey3ABI, // Poll conttract ABI
    functionName: 'getUserAnswers', // Function to retrieve the answers that the user voted on
    args: [userAddress], // User's address whose votes you want to fetch
  });

  // filter answers, return the ones that the user voted on
  const plainTextVotes = answers.filter(a => votes.includes(keccak256(a.id)));

  return plainTextVotes;
}

// Example usage
getUserVotesPlainText().then(console.log);
getUserVoteHashes().then(console.log);

To do that, you must use the Socios.com API GET /polls/ endpoint, .

We recommend to implement in order to have your users logged in via their web3 wallet. Once logged in, if they have a Fan Token of the team the poll belongs to, they will be able to vote on that poll.
