Adding a response to a survey using the API?

Hi, Does anyone know if it's possible to add a response to a survey through the API? Looking through the documentation, I can see how to update or delete an existing response, but I'm not seeing a method for adding a new one. Thanks!

Well, in previous versions of API you could include the import file as part of the data as described in the docs. So you wouldn't actually have to save the temp file.

You can import responses with the API.

Thank you TomG, I saw that, but I am hoping to not have to create and store files in order to add responses through the API, even if it's only temporary. Is there no way to just pass raw data through the API to generate a new response?

Is there a follow up on this? Is it at least on the roadmap?
