response:

• Approver

Returns Unauthorized (401) if user does not have the required permissions at global level or on the parent InstructionDefinition's product pack.

e.g.

http://localhost/Consumer/Responses/new/6/filter/U2VyaWFsTnVtYmVyfExpa2V8MUE0NDE1QkM=/start/0;0/pageSize/20

The filter is a 64 bit encoded filter. The start is an offset in the previous respons and the page size is the size of responses to be shown on a single page.

The start section starts as 0;0 and gets more complicated if the system has been sharded.  It basically means ShardId; Answer but see Sharding for more details.

It does not return Unauthorized (401) rather filters out instructions based on permissions.

{"DefinitionId":9, "Scope":null, "Parameters":null, "InstructionTtlMinutes":60, "ResponseTtlMinutes120, "SaveAsQuestionTemplate":false, "KeepRaw":0}

will return:
