# Pendo Feedback API

Pendo Feedback API manages the product-feedback loop that Pendo Feedback captures from users. It exposes the accounts and users the feedback comes from, the features being requested, the votes users cast for those features, and the comments they leave. You can tag accounts, users, and features to segment them, search across the data, and register webhooks so your systems react when feedback changes. It fits product and customer-success teams that want feedback and demand signals flowing into their own tools rather than staying inside a dashboard.

## For AI agents

Work with product feedback in Pendo Feedback: read accounts, users, features, votes, and comments, tag records, and register webhooks for feedback events.

## Scope

Manages product feedback: accounts, users, features, votes, comments, tags, and webhooks. Does not track in-app product usage analytics or run in-app guides, which are separate Pendo products.

## Capabilities

- Read accounts and the users who submit feedback
- List requested features and the votes cast for them
- Record a vote on a feature on a user's behalf
- Read the comments users leave on feature requests
- Tag accounts, users, and features to segment them
- Search across feedback data and invite users
- Register and remove webhooks for feedback events

## Use cases

### Sync demand signals into planning tools

Bring feature requests and their vote counts into the tools a product team already plans with. The agent reads the requested features and the votes cast for them so a roadmap or ticketing system can rank work by real user demand instead of guesswork.

Example prompt: Read the requested features and their votes and return them ranked by vote count for a planning tool.

### Record feedback captured elsewhere

Feed feedback gathered outside Pendo Feedback back into it. The agent records a vote on a feature on a user's behalf so a support conversation or sales call that surfaced a request is reflected alongside in-product feedback.

Example prompt: Record a vote on the named feature for the given user so external feedback joins the in-product signal.

### Segment feedback with tags

Group feedback by the attributes a team cares about. The agent tags accounts, users, and features so demand can be sliced by segment, such as plan tier or region, when the data is analysed.

Example prompt: Apply the requested tags to the given accounts, users, or features so feedback can be segmented.

### React to feedback in real time

Trigger workflows when feedback changes. The agent registers a webhook so a downstream system is notified as new votes or requests arrive, and removes the subscription when it is no longer needed.

Example prompt: Register a webhook for feedback events, or unsubscribe an existing one when it is no longer needed.

## Key endpoints

| Method | Path | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| GET | `/accounts` | List the accounts submitting feedback |
| GET | `/features` | List the requested features |
| GET | `/votes` | List the votes cast on features |
| POST | `/votes` | Record a vote on a feature |
| GET | `/users/{id}` | Read a single user by identifier |

## Key resources

- **Feature** — A requested product capability that users can vote on and comment on.
- **Vote** — A user's expression of demand for a feature, used to rank requests.
- **Account** — An organisation whose users submit feedback, taggable for segmentation.

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring Pendo Feedback API by hand means provisioning the auth-token key, learning how accounts, features, votes, and comments relate, and handling tags and webhooks. Through Jentic you install once, import Pendo Feedback from the Jentic API Directory, configure the key, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** Feedback data spans reads and writes across many resources, and because Jentic One is self-hosted, your own rules decide which the agent may call. You can allow reading features and votes while withholding operations that delete accounts or users, so the agent reaches only what you approved.
- **Credential handling:** Your Pendo Feedback auth-token key is held encrypted by your own Jentic One instance and attached to requests only at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent, such as listing feature votes or recording a vote, and Jentic returns the matching Pendo Feedback operation with typed inputs, so the agent calls the right one without scanning all 31 operations.

## FAQ

### What authentication does Pendo Feedback API use?

Pendo Feedback API authenticates with an API key named auth-token, which you send as a request header or as a query parameter. Through Jentic, the key you configure is held encrypted by your own Jentic One instance and attached to requests at execution time. Check Pendo's developer documentation for how to obtain the key.

### Can I write feedback back into Pendo Feedback, or only read it?

You can do both. Alongside reading accounts, features, votes, and comments, the API lets you record a vote on a feature, tag records, and invite users, so feedback gathered elsewhere can be reflected in Pendo Feedback.

### What are the rate limits for Pendo Feedback API?

The OpenAPI description does not specify rate limits. Check Pendo's developer documentation for the limits on your account before syncing feedback in bulk.

### Is there an MCP server for Pendo Feedback?

You don't need an MCP server to use Pendo Feedback with your agent. Through Jentic, your agent finds the feedback operations by intent and calls them directly, with your credentials injected at run time by your own Jentic One instance.

### How do I connect Pendo Feedback API to my agent through Jentic?

To run it on your own infrastructure, install Jentic One from its GitHub repo, then import Pendo Feedback API from the Jentic API Directory and configure your auth-token key. Your agent can then read and update feedback with that key injected at execution time.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with Pendo Feedback API?

Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, your own rules decide which Pendo Feedback operations the agent may call, so you can allow reading features and votes while withholding operations that delete accounts or users. Your key stays encrypted on your own instance and is attached only when a permitted request runs.
