API process | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hello,
I am trying to figure out the API process. Using the documentation I was able to build the survey workflow. I am unclear what I am to do next?
I created a workflow for the extract but the load options aren't what I'd expect/want for API. I think I am missing something.

Can you please assist?

Hi CLM,
What are you trying to achieve? APIs are generally intended for automating specific tasks. If you just want to run a survey, you're probably better off doing it within Qualtrics.

I am planning to run the survey using Qualtrics.. I need/want to have the survey response data automatically flow from Qualtrics to MYSQL.

Hi CLM,
In general, it's not recommended for an external application to write directly into your database and we don't have any tasks to support that. You'd need an intermediary like a load data into SFTP task and then another system on your side to load the data from your SFTP into MySQL.
If this is still a use case you need to solve for, what are you trying to query inside MySQL? Perhaps you can achieve the same outcome inside Qualtrics.
