# /surveys/:id/answers

`GET /surveys/{id}/answers`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://subdomain.workable.com/spi/v3`
- URL: `https://subdomain.workable.com/spi/v3/surveys/{id}/answers`
- Auth: API key in header `Authorization`

Returns the individual submitted answers of a survey cycle. Required scope: `r_surveys`. Requires a user token whose member has permission to view survey cycles, or an account token with the `member_id` of such a member; an account token without `member_id` gets `403`. The account must have the Surveys feature enabled.

Non-anonymous surveys include the participant identity (`employee`), `employee_survey_id` and `submitted_at`. Anonymous surveys return only `id`, `question_id`, `question_type`, `answer` and `choices`, and when `min_responses_required` > 0 answers are withheld until the threshold is met overall and per question (withheld answers still count towards `total_count`). Members with a scoped role only receive answers of employees within their scope. Ordered by participant last name, first name, then answer id.

## Path parameters
