How should the response to a ranking question be sent via RC2?

I am calling the "add_response" method of RemoteControl2. I'm trying to add an answer to a ranking question. All the other answers are being accepted, but I can't see any documentation on how to structure the ranking answer.

So far I have tried (where S is the survey ID, G is the group ID, and Q is the question ID)

SXGXQ = "A1,A2,A3,A4"
SXGXQ = ["A1", "A2", "A3", "A4"]
SXGXQ = {"A1":1, "A2":2, "A3":3, "A4":4}
SXGXQ_1 = "A1", SXGXQ_2 = "A2", SXGXQ_3 = "A3", SXGXQ_1 = "A3"
SXGXQA1 = 1, SXGXQA2 = 2, SXGXQA3 = 3, SXGXQA4 = 4

What is the correct structure for this?

Try this:

Code:
SXGXQ1 = 'A1', SXGXQ2 = 'A2', SXGXQ3 = 'A3', SXGXQ4 = 'A4'

Here is a working example using RPC:

Code:
<?php require_once 'jsonRPCClient.php'; define( 'LS_BASEURL', 'https://pathTo/limesurvey/'); define( 'LS_USER', 'admin' ); define( 'LS_PASSWORD', 'password' ); $iSurveyID = 123456; $g1ID = 123; $q1ID = 1234; $q1SGQ = $iSurveyID.'X'.$g1ID.'X'.$q1ID; if(ctype_alnum($iSurveyID) && (strlen($iSurveyID) == 5 || strlen($iSurveyID) == 6)) { // Valid SID format // Instantiate a new RPC client $myJSONRPCClient = new jsonRPCClient( LS_BASEURL.'/index.php/admin/remotecontrol' ); // Get a session key $sSessionKey= $myJSONRPCClient->get_session_key( LS_USER, LS_PASSWORD ); if(is_array($sSessionKey)) { // Invalid session echo $sSessionKey['status']; } else if($sSessionKey) { // Valid session // Set a new response $aResponseData = array($q1SGQ.'1'=>'A1', $q1SGQ.'2'=>'A2', $q1SGQ.'3'=>'A3', $q1SGQ.'4'=>'A4'); $newResponse = $myJSONRPCClient->add_response($sSessionKey, $iSurveyID, $aResponseData); } // Release the session key $myJSONRPCClient->release_session_key( $sSessionKey ); } else { // Invalid SID format die( 'Invalid format!' ); } ?>
