Create a survey with GET parameters and ChatGPT
You can also create your survey very quickly and easily via the URL using GET parameters. Almost all settings, texts, data, and options can be predefined with the corresponding parameters. This way you can prepare your survey, make manual adjustments, and just save it.

Notes on creating options
Options are choices or answers for your survey participants. Create them in the desired order with the parameters date, text, location, limit, freetext and freetext_private.
For example, if you create 2 options with date and add text to the 2nd option and then a 3rd option with text and free text input (any text), you could do this with the following combination:
date=2026-12-24|2026-12-25&text=|Christmas Dinner|What will you bring?&freetext=||text
Note the vertical bars (
|). Each bar switches to the next option. In the above example, the text is in the 2nd option and the free text input in the 3rd option. For each skipped option you must add a vertical bar.
Example of a survey via GET parameter
This URL (use fragab.de for german language) automatically pre-fills the survey form with the title "When are you available?", the description "Please choose your preferred date" and creates options with the dates "01.06.2029 from 10:00 to 11:00", "02.06.2026" and "06.06.2026". In addition, it activates the setting "Allow maybe answers".
You will land on the survey creation page with the corresponding presets.
Date-options should always use the date parameter. To add additional text options, use the text parameter as well:
The example above will add 3 more text options after the date options, as the ||| skip the first 3 date options.
An event date is a single date definition and not an option itself.
Create a fragab survey with ChatGPT
Simply ask ChatGPT to create your survey with fragab. Provide the title, description, and all dates and settings as you like. To make sure ChatGPT knows which URL to use, you can additionally specify that it should use the page fragab.com/create. A link to this guide is on this page. This way ChatGPT can read and understand these instructions and create your survey accordingly.
ChatGPT example prompt
Create a survey with fragab with the title "When are you available?" and the description "Please choose your preferred date". The choice should be between October 20, 2026, October 21, and October 22, each at 8 p.m. It should also allow a "Maybe" option. Add my name as the creator.
Create a survey link with fragab for my group of friends to find a date from the next 4 Saturdays, each at 6 PM. In addition to the dates, add 4 more answer options for different types of restaurants.
Create a survey with fragab for the match catering next Saturday at 2 PM. Who brings what? Offer the following options: pretzels, milk, coffee, cake, donuts, muffins.
ChatGPT will then generate the corresponding URL for you with all necessary parameters. When you click/tap on it, you will land directly on the prefilled survey form at fragab.
Note on the chosen domain and language via ChatGPT: The domain can be fragab.de (German language) or fragab.com (English language by default). ChatGPT operates system-wise in English and therefore accesses English documentation. For German, ChatGPT should preferably use the URL fragab.de, or fragab.com, fragab.com/fr/ etc. for languages other than English.
Notes & tips
Some settings in fragab are only available with a Gold or Platinum package. However, you can still set them via parameters or ChatGPT. When saving the survey, you will then receive information about the missing package. You can then disable these options manually or simply purchase a package (always worth it 😉).
If you are already logged in at fragab, you can save the survey directly. If you also have a package, you can of course use the additional survey features.
If you are not logged in, you need an e-mail address to create your survey. Here too, you can simply tell ChatGPT under which e-mail address the survey should be created.
