# Edit a survey draft with Kai

`POST https://api.gleap.io/v3/engagement/surveys/{surveyId}/kai-edit`

Ask Kai to edit the draft. Body `{ instruction, definition?, selectedId?, lang? }`: `definition` is the editor's working copy (default: the stored draft), `selectedId` the step "this question" refers to, `lang` the language the teammate is viewing. Nothing is saved: returns `{ status: 'edited', summary, definition, changes: [{ kind, step, id, number?, type?, title, details }], warnings, languagesAdded, languagesNotInProject }` for review, or `{ status: 'unrelated' | 'unclear' | 'no_change' | 'failed', message }`. Existing questions keep their ids and answer keys. Uses AI credits (402 when out of AI usage); 429 when asked too often.
