DataExport

Entity - Data Export - Exports information from the system

Note for API version 8.0

As of API version 8.0, the visibility of the instruction responses is restricted in accordance to the Management Groups assigned to the users. See the note at the top of the Responses page for an explanation of how this works. The same principle applies to the DataExport APIs that export responses, where it is not possible to export any responses that cannot be accessed from the Responses API.

GET

/Consumer/DataExport/Type/{objectType}

UNAVAILABLE FROM 2.1 (INC) ONWARDS

/Consumer/DataExport /Responses/{instructionId:int}/aggregate/{flag:bool}

UNAVAILABLE FROM 2.1 (INC) ONWARDS

This endpoint can be used to retrieve successful responses to a specific instruction.

  • instructionId - id of the instruction

  • flag - "true" if you want aggregated responses. "false" if you don't.

NOTE - True will only work for questions that you can aggregate on the way out (so the ones with "Keep results") and only those will return a value here. Others will simply return an empty file.

Instruction's owner can also view responses.
