{
  "jentic": {

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for Alchemer REST API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. The Alchemer REST API gives programmatic access to surveys, pages, questions, responses, campaigns, and contact lists in an Alchemer account. It supports listing and managing surveys, retrieving response data and aggregate statistics, and working with the contact lists used to distribute survey campaigns. Authentication uses an api_token and api_token_secret pair sent as query parameters on every request.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Alchemer REST API API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Sync survey responses to a data warehouse

A data team pulls responses from each active Alchemer survey on a schedule by calling /survey/{surveyId}/surveyresponse and writes them into a warehouse for analysis. Combining this with the survey statistics endpoint lets the team build dashboards that mix raw response rows with response rate and completion metrics. The integration removes manual CSV exports from the Alchemer UI.

GET /survey to list active surveys, then for each survey id GET /survey/{surveyId}/surveyresponse and append the rows to the warehouse table

Programmatic survey creation from a template

A research operations team uses the Alchemer REST API to create a new survey for each customer interview round by calling PUT /survey and then configuring questions and pages. This lets the team spin up surveys from a controlled template without clicking through the Alchemer designer for every project.

PUT /survey with the survey title and type, then GET /survey/{surveyId}/surveypage and /survey/{surveyId}/surveyquestion to verify the resulting structure

Contact list audit before a campaign send

Before launching an Alchemer email campaign, a marketing engineer audits the target contact list by listing every contact in /contactlist/{listId}/contactlistcontact and validating emails against an external suppression list. Only after the audit does the engineer attach the list to a campaign. This avoids sending to lapsed or invalid recipients.

GET /contactlist to find the target list id, then GET /contactlist/{listId}/contactlistcontact and pass each email to a validation step

Agent-driven survey reporting through Jentic

A Jentic agent receives an intent like 'show me last month's survey results' and chains the Alchemer operations: list surveys, fetch the matching survey, pull responses, and read aggregate statistics. The agent returns a concise summary to the user without exposing raw API tokens or response payloads.

Search Jentic for 'retrieve survey responses', load the schema for GET /survey/{surveyId}/surveyresponse, and execute it with the survey id resolved from a previous GET /survey call

Why though Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Both api_token and api_token_secret are stored encrypted in the Jentic credential vault and injected as query parameters at call time. The agent never sees the raw token pair in its context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent (e.g. 'list survey responses' or 'create a survey'), and Jentic returns the matching Alchemer operation with its input schema so the agent can call it directly.

Time to first call

Direct Alchemer integration: 1-2 days for auth wiring, pagination, and response shape handling. Through Jentic: under an hour with search, load, and execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Alchemer REST API API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Alchemer REST API?

Alchemer does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Alchemer REST API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

What authentication does the Alchemer REST API use?

Alchemer requires an api_token and api_token_secret pair, both sent as query parameters on every request. Jentic stores both values encrypted and injects them at execution time so neither token enters the agent's prompt context.

Can I retrieve all responses for a specific Alchemer survey?

Yes. Call GET /survey/{surveyId}/surveyresponse with the survey id you obtained from GET /survey. The endpoint returns the response rows for that survey, which you can paginate through and write into your own store.

What are the rate limits for the Alchemer REST API?

The OpenAPI spec does not declare rate limits. Alchemer enforces plan-based limits server-side (commonly documented as a few requests per second per token); throttle long-running exports and contact list reads accordingly.

How do I create a new survey with the Alchemer REST API through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'create an alchemer survey', load the schema for PUT /survey, and execute it with the survey title and type. Jentic returns the new survey id so an agent can immediately follow up with question and page configuration calls.

Can I read the contacts in a specific Alchemer contact list?

Yes. Call GET /contactlist to find the list id, then GET /contactlist/{listId}/contactlistcontact to retrieve the contacts attached to that list.
