Core Workflows
1. Create a New Survey
Create a new empty survey that can be further configured with questions and pages.
Tool: SURVEY_MONKEY_CREATE_SURVEY
Key parameters: title -- survey title displayed to respondents (required) nickname -- optional internal name for organizing surveys (not shown to respondents) language -- ISO 639-1 language code (default en); examples: es, fr, de footer -- whether to display Survey Monkey branding footer (default true)
The created survey starts with one empty page and no questions. Use the returned survey_id with other actions to add content and configure collectors.
Example prompt:
"Create a new survey titled 'Customer Satisfaction Q1 2026'"
2. List and Search Surveys
Enumerate all surveys in your account with filtering, sorting, and pagination.
Tool: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_SURVEYS
Key parameters: title -- search by survey title (partial match) sort_by -- sort by title, date_modified, or num_responses sort_order -- ASC or DESC page / per_page -- pagination controls (default 50 per page, max 100) include -- additional fields: response_count, date_modified, date_created, question_count, page_count, category, language, folder_id folder_id -- filter to surveys in a specific folder start_modified_at / end_modified_at -- date range filter (format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS)
Example prompt:
"List all my surveys sorted by most recent modification, include response counts"
3. Get Survey Details
Retrieve comprehensive metadata for a specific survey including configuration, question/page counts, response counts, and all relevant URLs.
Tool: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_SURVEY_DETAILS
Key parameters: survey_id -- the unique survey identifier (required)
Returns: title, language, question_count, page_count, response_count, URLs for preview/edit/analyze/collect, button text, and timestamps.
Example prompt:
"Show me the full details and response count for survey 123456789"
4. Manage Collectors and Distribution Links
Retrieve collectors (distribution channels) for a survey to get shareable links and monitor response progress.
Tool: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_COLLECTORS
Key parameters: survey_id -- the survey to get collectors for (required) include -- additional fields: type, status, response_count, date_created, date_modified, url name -- partial match filter on collector name sort_by -- sort by id, date_modified, type, status, or name sort_order -- ASC or DESC page / per_page -- pagination (default 50, max 1000) start_date / end_date -- filter by creation date (format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS)
Example prompt:
"Get all collectors for survey 123456789, include URLs and response counts"
5. Retrieve Survey Responses
Fetch response data for a specific survey with comprehensive filtering options.
Tool: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_RESPONSES
Key parameters: survey_id -- the survey to retrieve responses from (required) status -- filter by completed, partial, overquota, or disqualified page / per_page -- pagination (default 50, max 1000) sort_order -- ASC or DESC (sorted by date_modified) start_created_at / end_created_at -- filter by creation date range (ISO 8601) start_modified_at / end_modified_at -- filter by modification date range email -- filter by respondent email first_name / last_name -- filter by respondent name ip -- filter by IP address total_time_min / total_time_max / total_time_units -- filter by completion time
Example prompt:
"Get all completed responses for survey 123456789 from the last 30 days"
6. Full Survey Lifecycle Workflow
Combine tools for end-to-end survey management:
Create: SURVEY_MONKEY_CREATE_SURVEY -- create the survey, store the survey_id Distribute: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_COLLECTORS -- retrieve the collector link to share with respondents Monitor: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_SURVEY_DETAILS -- check response counts and survey status Collect: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_RESPONSES -- retrieve completed responses, filter by status=completed Audit: SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_SURVEYS -- browse and find surveys if survey_id is lost
Example prompt:
"Create a survey called 'Event Feedback', then show me how to distribute it"
Known Pitfalls
| Pitfall | Details |
|---|---|
| Pagination required | SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_COLLECTORS and SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_RESPONSES require managing page/per_page for large surveys to avoid missing data |
| Status filtering critical | SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_RESPONSES returns partial, overquota, and disqualified entries unless filtered -- use status=completed for reliable data |
| No shareable link on create | SURVEY_MONKEY_CREATE_SURVEY does not create a distribution link -- use SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_COLLECTORS to get shareable URLs |
| Survey ID storage | Losing track of survey_id forces reliance on SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_SURVEYS which is slower -- store IDs immediately after creation |
| Question ID mapping | Question IDs and answer formats from responses must be carefully mapped; use SURVEY_MONKEY_GET_SURVEY_DETAILS to understand the structure |
| Date format | Date filters use YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS format, not ISO 8601 with timezone |
| Empty survey on create | New surveys start with one empty page and no questions -- further configuration is needed |
