Get number of responses (remotely, RPC) was created by rcha88AA
Hi, I've been using the RPC functionality of limesurvey to get some data displayed on my (different) website.
I want to get the number of responses (complete/incomplete/all) that a survey has.
I understand that I can get a csv/json of the response data from 'export_responses', and parse that, but some surveys may contain a lot of data, a lot of responses, and it seems very inefficient and slow to download every single response just to count how many responses there were.
That's why I would like a 'export_response_count' function, or something similar.
Does this sound like a good idea for a new rpc function?
Thank you for all the help and support.

Hi,
maybe I misunderstood your desire.
But looking at the available functions I saw:
Isn't that exactly what you would like to have?
Best regards

That's exactly what I want!
I should have looked through each function very thoroughly, I missed that, sorry.
It works great.
Thank you very much!
