Response Summary PDF by API? | XM Community
Skip to main content

Is it possible to retrieve a response summary PDF via the API? Ideally I'd like to be able to export the responses to CSV/Excel, parse each response for its response ID, and then download the summary PDF for each response using an API call. I found https://api.qualtrics.com/api-reference/b3A6NjEwNjg-retrieve-a-survey-response but it doesn't look like what I need.

hhjones from my understanding it won't be possible to export responses as a PDF currently using API.

Solved: PDF response extraction workflow bottleneck. Built a two-stage automation that transforms hours of manual clicking into minutes of organized batch processing. Successfully tested with multiple datasets. This solution addresses the workflow gap research teams face when needing individual response documentation for analysis and compliance.
