# Android Questionnaire API Integration

This document describes the API contract the Android app can use to fetch questionnaires, fetch translations, and upload completed questionnaire answers.

Use the front-controller routes under `/api/...`. The clean route `/api/app_questionnaires` is preferred because it returns the unified response envelope used by the web app and supports `POST` uploads.

## Base Requirements

- Base URL: `https://<server-host>/api`
- JSON header: `Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8`
- Auth header after login: `Authorization: Bearer <token>`
- All timestamps are integer Unix timestamps. Use seconds unless the server contract is changed.
- Successful front-controller responses use:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {}
}
```

- Error responses use:

```json
{
  "ok": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "ERROR_CODE",
    "message": "Human readable message"
  }
}
```

Auth and permission failures use the same envelope, for example:

```json
{
  "ok": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "UNAUTHORIZED",
    "message": "Invalid or expired token"
  }
}
```

Submit validation failures (`POST /api/app_questionnaires`) return `code` `VALIDATION_FAILED` with a `details.errors` array:

```json
{
  "ok": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "VALIDATION_FAILED",
    "message": "Some answers are invalid or missing",
    "details": {
      "errors": [
        { "questionID": "q3", "code": "MISSING_ANSWER", "message": "Required question is not answered" }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## Authentication

### Login

`POST /api/auth/login`

Request:

```json
{
  "username": "coach1",
  "password": "secret"
}
```

Success:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "token": "64-character-hex-token",
    "user": "coach1",
    "role": "coach",
    "clients": [
      { "clientCode": "CLIENT-001" },
      { "clientCode": "CLIENT-002" }
    ]
  }
}
```

For `coach` accounts, `clients` lists client codes currently assigned to that coach (`client.coachID`). Other roles omit this field or return an empty array.

If the account must change its password first, the response contains `mustChangePassword: true` and a temporary token. That temporary token cannot access questionnaire endpoints until the password is changed.

### Change password

`POST /api/auth/change-password`

Headers:

```http
Authorization: Bearer <token>
```

The token may be a normal session token or the temporary token returned when `mustChangePassword` is true.

Request:

```json
{
  "username": "coach1",
  "old_password": "temporary-or-current-password",
  "new_password": "new-secret"
}
```

Success:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "token": "64-character-hex-token",
    "user": "coach1",
    "role": "coach"
  }
}
```

The server revokes the previous token and returns a new full session token. `new_password` must be at least 6 characters.

Common failures:

- `400 MISSING_FIELDS`: required fields missing.
- `400 PASSWORD_TOO_SHORT`: new password too short.
- `401 INVALID_CREDENTIALS`: old password incorrect.
- `403`: invalid, expired, or mismatched token.

There is no self-service signup endpoint. Coach accounts are created on the web by administrators.

## Fetch Questionnaires

### Fetch Active Questionnaire List

`GET /api/app_questionnaires`

Headers:

```http
Authorization: Bearer <token>
```

Success:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "questionnaire_1_demographic_information",
      "name": "demographic information",
      "showPoints": false,
      "condition": {}
    }
  ]
}
```

Fields:

- `id`: stable questionnaire identifier. Use this when fetching the questionnaire details and uploading answers.
- `name`: display/admin name.
- `showPoints`: whether the app may show the points result.
- `condition`: JSON condition object. Empty conditions are returned as `{}`.
- `categoryKey` (optional): grouping key for the opening screen. The app resolves the section title as `questionnaire_group_<categoryKey>` (global app UI strings). Keys in use appear automatically on the website **Translations** page; default German text may come from `data/app_ui_strings.json` (`germanDefaults`). Unused translation rows can be removed from the questionnaires dashboard.

Only questionnaires with `state = "active"` are returned, ordered by server `orderIndex`.

### Fetch One Questionnaire

`GET /api/app_questionnaires?id=<questionnaireID>`

Example:

`GET /api/app_questionnaires?id=questionnaire_1_demographic_information`

Success:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "meta": {
      "id": "questionnaire_1_demographic_information"
    },
    "questions": [
      {
        "id": "q1",
        "layout": "radio_question",
        "question": "consent_instruction",
        "options": [
          {
            "key": "consent_signed",
            "nextQuestionId": "q6"
          },
          {
            "key": "consent_not_signed",
            "nextQuestionId": "q2"
          }
        ],
        "pointsMap": {
          "consent_signed": 0,
          "consent_not_signed": 0
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

Question fields:

- `id`: short question ID used by the Android app and upload payload, for example `q1`.
- `layout`: question renderer type, for example `radio_question`, `multi_check_box_question`, `string_spinner`, `value_spinner`, `client_coach_code_question`, or `last_page`.
- `question`: translation key or default text for the question.
- `options`: answer choices for choice questions and spinner options.
- `options[].key`: answer option key. Send this back as `answerOptionKey` during upload.
- `options[].nextQuestionId`: optional conditional navigation target.
- `pointsMap`: optional map from answer option key to point value.
- `textKey`, `textKey1`, `textKey2`, `hint`, `hint1`, `hint2`, `symptoms`, `range`, `constraints`, `precision`, `dateRange`, `minSelection`: optional layout-specific config fields.
- `noteBeforeKey`, `noteAfterKey`: optional translation keys for text shown above / below the question title (editor “note before/after”). Present only when notes are configured; resolve via the questionnaire `translations` map.
  - `dateRange` (date_spinner): `"past"` (default) or `"future"` — which years/dates the app offers.

Important ID rule: the fetch response returns short question IDs such as `q1`. The server resolves these back to full database IDs during upload, so the Android app should upload the same short IDs it received.

## Download Client Answers (restore on device)

`GET /api/app_questionnaires?clientCode=<code>&answers=1`

Allowed roles: `coach`, `supervisor`, `admin` (coach must be assigned to the client).

Headers:

```http
Authorization: Bearer <token>
```

Success (encrypted envelope, same as `?clients=1`):

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "encrypted": true,
    "payload": { "...": "..." }
  }
}
```

Decrypted `data`:

```json
{
  "clientCode": "K008",
  "questionnaires": [
    {
      "questionnaireID": "questionnaire_2_rhs",
      "completedAt": 1710000000,
      "sumPoints": 12,
      "answers": [
        { "questionID": "q1", "answerOptionKey": "consent_signed" },
        { "questionID": "languages_spoken", "answerOptionKey": "language_arabic" },
        { "questionID": "languages_spoken", "answerOptionKey": "language_english" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}
```

Notes:

- Returns all `completed_questionnaire` rows for the client.
- `answers` mirrors the POST submit shape (short `questionID`, glass-scale symptoms as separate entries, multi-checkbox as multiple rows with the same `questionID`).
- On the server, multi-checkbox answers are stored in one `client_answer` row (`freeTextValue` JSON array); export expands them for the app importer.
- Use on **client load** to restore answers after upload or on a fresh install.

## Fetch Assigned Clients

`GET /api/app_questionnaires?clients=1`

Allowed roles: `coach` only.

Returns the list of client codes assigned to the authenticated coach.

Headers:

```http
Authorization: Bearer <token>
```

Success:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "clients": [
      {
        "clientCode": "CLIENT-001",
        "note": "Call back next week",
        "completedQuestionnaires": [
          {
            "questionnaireID": "questionnaire_1_demographic_information",
            "sumPoints": 42,
            "completedAt": 1714471800
          }
        ]
      },
      {
        "clientCode": "CLIENT-002",
        "note": "",
        "completedQuestionnaires": []
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

Fields:

- `clients`: array of client objects assigned to the coach, ordered alphabetically by `clientCode`.
- `clients[].clientCode`: the client's code string.
- `clients[].note`: counselor follow-up note for this client (max 200 characters; empty string when none).
- `clients[].completedQuestionnaires`: array of questionnaires already completed by this client. Empty array if none.
- `clients[].completedQuestionnaires[].questionnaireID`: the questionnaire ID, matching the IDs from the questionnaire list endpoint.
- `clients[].completedQuestionnaires[].sumPoints`: total points from the last upload for this questionnaire.
- `clients[].completedQuestionnaires[].completedAt`: Unix timestamp (seconds) of when the questionnaire was completed, or `null` if not recorded.

Common failures:

- `401`: missing or invalid token.
- `403`: token belongs to a role other than `coach` (supervisor and admin must use the web `/api/clients` endpoint instead).

## Fetch Translations

`GET /api/app_questionnaires?translations=1`

**Authentication:** required (`Authorization: Bearer <token>`). Fetched during post-login sync.

`GET /api/app_questionnaires?loginTranslations=1`

**Authentication:** not required. Returns only login-screen keys (`auth_*`, `help_auth_*`, password hints/rules, and related buttons). The app fetches this on the login screen; built-in DE/EN fallbacks still apply if offline.

Success:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "translations": {
      "en": {
        "consent_instruction": "Consent instruction text",
        "consent_signed": "Consent signed",
        "client_code": "Client code"
      },
      "de": {
        "consent_instruction": "Einwilligungstext",
        "consent_signed": "Einwilligung unterschrieben",
        "client_code": "Klientencode"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

The translation map is grouped by language code. Each language contains a flat key-value map of **app UI strings only** (screens, toasts, auth labels, etc.). Questionnaire question/option text is **not** included here.

Android lookup for app UI:

1. Load `translations[activeLanguage]`.
2. Look up the string key (e.g. `save`, `client_code`).
3. If missing, fall back to embedded defaults in the app.

## Questionnaire detail translations

`GET /api/app_questionnaires?id=<questionnaireID>` includes a sibling `translations` object with the same shape (language code → key → text), scoped to that questionnaire only:

- question default text (`question` field values)
- answer option default text (`options[].key`)
- questionnaire config string keys (`textKey`, hints, symptoms, etc.), excluding global app UI catalog keys

Android should apply this map while a questionnaire is open (overlay on top of app UI translations), then clear it when leaving the questionnaire.

## Recommended Android Sync Flow

1. On the login screen, optionally fetch `GET /api/app_questionnaires?loginTranslations=1` (no token) and cache locally; built-in DE/EN strings cover offline.
2. Login with `/api/auth/login` and store the returned token securely (EncryptedSharedPreferences on Android).
3. Fetch app UI translations with `GET /api/app_questionnaires?translations=1` (Bearer token required) and cache locally.
4. Fetch the assigned client list with `GET /api/app_questionnaires?clients=1` (coach role only).
5. Fetch the active questionnaire list with `GET /api/app_questionnaires`.
6. For each list item, fetch details with `GET /api/app_questionnaires?id=<id>` (includes per-questionnaire `translations`).
7. Cache the client list, app translations, the questionnaire list, and questionnaire details (with embedded translations) locally for offline use.
8. When a questionnaire is completed, upload answers with `POST /api/app_questionnaires` using an **encrypted** JSON envelope (see above).

There is currently no version or `updatedAt` field in the app fetch response, so the safest refresh strategy is to re-fetch translations, list, and details when syncing with the server.

## Android local data security

The Android app encrypts sensitive data **at rest on the device**:

- **Answer text** and **client codes** in the local Room database use AES-256-GCM with keys in Android Keystore (ciphertext on disk; plaintext only inside the running app).
- **Assigned client list** cache and **session token** use the same encryption / EncryptedSharedPreferences respectively.
- **Questionnaire definitions** and UI translations cached from this API are not encrypted (no user answers).

Sensitive mobile traffic uses **two layers**:

1. **HTTPS** (TLS) for transport.
2. **Application payload encryption** for patient-related fields: AES-256-CBC with a per-session key derived from the Bearer token via HKDF-SHA256 (`info` = `qdb-aes`), matching the legacy QDB mobile crypto helpers.

Encrypted wire format (request or response `data`):

```json
{
  "encrypted": true,
  "payload": "<base64( IV16 || ciphertext )>"
}
```

Endpoints using encrypted payloads:

| Endpoint | Direction |
|----------|-----------|
| `POST /api/auth/login` | Response: `clientsPayload` (when coach has clients) |
| `GET /api/app_questionnaires?clients=1` | Response: entire `data` object encrypted |
| `POST /api/app_questionnaires` | Request body must be encrypted |

Plain JSON (no app-layer encryption): `GET ?translations=1`, questionnaire list, questionnaire detail.

The server decrypts uploads before writing to the database. The web dashboard reads **server-side** plaintext (RBAC). The Android app also keeps **AES-GCM at rest** on device via Android Keystore (separate from wire encryption).

Re-uploading the same `clientCode` + `questionnaireID` updates server rows in place (see upload behavior below). This matches upcoming editable flows on web and mobile.

Legacy full-database download endpoints (`downloadFull.php`, encrypted SQLite master file) are **not** used by the current Android app.

## Upload Questionnaire Data

`POST /api/app_questionnaires`

Allowed roles: `admin`, `supervisor`, `coach`.

The authenticated user must be authorized for the submitted `clientCode`. A coach can upload for their own clients. A supervisor can upload for clients of their coaches. An admin can upload for any client.

### Set client note

Encrypted body action (coach only):

```json
{
  "action": "setClientNote",
  "clientCode": "CLIENT-001",
  "note": "Call back next week"
}
```

- `note` is optional; omit or send `""` to clear. Max **200** characters after sanitization (same free-text rules as interview answers).
- Response `data` is an encrypted envelope containing `{ "clientCode", "note" }`.
- Notes are stored in `client_followup_note` (shared with the web Insights follow-up list).

### Submit questionnaire answers

Request:

```json
{
  "questionnaireID": "questionnaire_1_demographic_information",
  "clientCode": "CLIENT-001",
  "startedAt": 1714471200,
  "completedAt": 1714471800,
  "answers": [
    {
      "questionID": "q1",
      "answerOptionKey": "consent_signed",
      "answeredAt": 1714471210
    },
    {
      "questionID": "q9",
      "numericValue": 34,
      "answeredAt": 1714471300
    },
    {
      "questionID": "q12",
      "freeTextValue": "Free text answer",
      "answeredAt": 1714471400
    }
  ]
}
```

Required top-level fields:

- `questionnaireID`: questionnaire ID from the list/detail endpoints.
- `clientCode`: existing client code.
- `answers`: array of answer objects.

Optional top-level fields:

- `startedAt`: questionnaire start timestamp.
- `completedAt`: questionnaire completion timestamp.

Answer fields:

- `questionID`: required per useful answer. Use the short question ID returned by the detail endpoint.
- `answerOptionKey`: for choice answers. Use `options[].key` from the detail endpoint.
- `freeTextValue`: for text answers.
- `numericValue`: for numeric/range answers.
- `answeredAt`: timestamp for this answer.

Current upload behavior:

- Unknown or empty `questionID` values are skipped.
- Unknown `answerOptionKey` values are stored as no selected option for that question.
- Re-uploading the same `clientCode` and `questionID` overwrites the previous answer in the **current** snapshot.
- Re-uploading the same `clientCode` and `questionnaireID` overwrites the completed questionnaire status and point sum (supports correction / re-edit workflows).
- Each successful POST also appends a **versioned submission** (`questionnaire_submission` + `client_answer_submission`) so the web dashboard can export all upload history. The app still reads only the current snapshot via `GET ?clientCode=…&answers=1`.
- `sumPoints` is calculated from recognized `answerOptionKey` values.
- The current database stores one selected answer option per question. If the Android UI allows multiple selections for a layout, coordinate a server change before uploading multiple option keys for one question.

Success:

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "submitted": true,
    "sumPoints": 0
  }
}
```

Common failures:

- `400 INVALID_BODY`: request body is not valid JSON.
- `400 MISSING_FIELDS`: one or more required fields are missing.
- `400 INVALID_FIELD`: `answers` is not an array.
- `401`: missing token or invalid credentials.
- `403`: expired token, password change required, or insufficient role.
- `404 NOT_FOUND`: questionnaire does not exist, client does not exist, or user is not authorized for that client.
- `405 METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED`: wrong HTTP method.

        @Header("Authorization") bearerToken: String,
        @Query("clients") clients: Int = 1
    ): ApiEnvelope<ClientsResponse>

    @GET("app_questionnaires")
