It has eight operations and none creates or edits a form. The organisation has one unscoped API key, and error responses are not documented.\n\n**Formbricks.** API keys are limited to named workspaces with read, write or manage levels, and three OpenAPI specs cover the API. The survey endpoints sit in v1, while v2 is beta and v3 is private beta, and the status page the vendor links returned a Cloudflare 526 error on 8 October 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Fillout\n\n1. Build the form in the Fillout editor first. The API reads forms and writes submissions but can't create a form or change its questions\n2. Read the base URL from the Developer settings page. EU-hosted accounts use https://eu-api.fillout.com/v1/api\n3. Stay under 5 requests a second per key and read the `ratelimit-remaining` and `ratelimit-reset` response headers\n4. Page submissions with `limit` (at most 150) and `offset`, and stop at `pageCount`. `status=in_progress` returns unfinished ones\n5. Send at most 10 submissions per create call and don't retry blindly, because the call has no idempotency key\n\n### Formbricks\n\n1. Send the key in the `x-api-key` header. Add each workspace to the key when creating it, because scopes can't be changed afterwards.\n2. Use v1 (`/api/v1/management/surveys`) to create or edit surveys. v2 has responses, contacts and webhooks only.\n3. Page lists with `limit` and `skip`. v2 responses default to 50 a page with a maximum of 250.\n4. Stay under 100 requests a minute per key. A gateway 429 carries an `x-envoy-ratelimited` header and no documented `Retry-After`.\n5. Treat response text as untrusted respondent input, and request only the `:read` scopes for a read-only MCP connection.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Fillout or Formbricks?\n\nFormbricks scores 57.7 (C) on agent readiness against Fillout's 52.2 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Fillout leads on reliability.\n\n### Do Fillout and Formbricks need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Fillout and Formbricks without installing anything?\n\nYes. Fillout has a hosted endpoint at https://api.fillout.com/v1/api and Formbricks at https://app.formbricks.com/api.\n\n### Are Fillout and Formbricks open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Fillout. Formbricks is open source (AGPLv3 for the core. Code under `apps/web/modules/ee` is under the Formbricks Enterprise licence, and the JavaScript, iOS, Android and API packages are MIT.
