API Access
Read surveys and responses programmatically.
Create an API key
Open Workspace → Integrations and create an API key. The key is shown once, at creation. Copy it then — it cannot be retrieved afterwards, only replaced.
What you can do
The API exposes your surveys and their responses, so you can pull data into a warehouse, a dashboard, or an internal application on your own schedule.
Using the key
Send the key with each request as a header. Never put it in front-end code, a public repository, or a URL — anything in a browser is readable by anyone using that browser.
Keeping it safe
- One key per integration, so you can revoke one without breaking the others.
- Revoke immediately if a key is exposed, and issue a new one.
- Rotate keys when someone with access leaves.
Availability
API access depends on your plan.
Warning — An API key can read your response data, including anything personally identifying your respondents gave you. Treat it like a password.
