Project Lifecycle

Who this is for: Demand integrators (research teams & sample buyers). When to use it: when you automate study setup and management. What happens next: your project moves from creation to live sourcing to reconciliation.

A project is a study you want to field. Its lifecycle on Zamplia:

 create ──▶ configure ──▶ go live ──▶ source sample ──▶ reconcile ──▶ close
   │           │             │              │               │
createProject  quotas &    projectStatus  feasibility &   reconcile
OnZamplia      quals        = "Live"       allocation      ParticipantIds

1. Create​

Create the study with createProjectOnZamplia. You define core attributes — project name, language, completes, length of interview (LOI), and incidence rate (IR). Zamplia returns a project identifier you'll use everywhere else.

2. Configure​

  • Add quotas to control the composition of completes — see Quota Management.
  • Add qualifications to target the right respondents.
  • Optionally apply group security on studies.

3. Go live​

Set the project status to live (projectStatus) and check feasibility with getFeasibility to understand expected delivery before committing traffic.

4. Source & monitor​

Zamplia allocates your demand to suppliers. Track delivery and retrieve the project state with getClientProjectById. Update attributes any time with updateProject.

5. Reconcile & close​

Reconcile completes with reconcileParticipantIds to confirm final statuses, then close the project when delivery is met.
