Get a single survey response by its response ID
AI agents call get_response to retrieve information from Qualtrics MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves survey response data based on a provided ID. It performs a query operation with no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no destructive actions. The severity is low because accessing existing survey response data poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent, as it merely exposes already-collected information rather than creating, modifying, or deleting records.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_response' and description 'Get a single survey response by its response ID' indicate data retrieval without modification.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_response gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Qualtrics MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_response:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_response": {}
}
}get_response is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Get a single survey response by its response ID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Qualtrics MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Qualtrics MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_response: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Qualtrics MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_response is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_response rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_response. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_response is provided by the Qualtrics MCP Server MCP server (yrvelez/qualtrics-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Qualtrics MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
