SnagBaneSnagBane has a REST API for your own scripts and systems. Create a personal API token, then list forms, read their questions and responses, download a response as PDF and subscribe REST hooks for new responses. The REST API is part of the Business plan.
Basics
- Base URL:
https://your-domain/api/v1 - Header:
Authorization: Bearer sb_… - Limit: 120 requests per minute
- A token acts as the person who created it — it sees exactly what they may see.
Create tokens under Automations & API → Personal API tokens. Administrators can list everyone's tokens with their owners and revoke forgotten ones; this is recorded in the audit log.

SnagBane runs on your own server, so the API can stay inside your network. The documentation describes how to expose only what an external service (such as Power Automate) needs.
Frequently asked questions
Is there an API reference?
Yes — the REST API reference has every endpoint with examples in curl, PowerShell and Python, errors, pagination, answer formats and webhook verification.
Can the API create responses?
The API is for reading forms and responses and subscribing to events. Responses are sent through the forms themselves.
See REST API in the documentation.
