The XEBO data import tool is a migration utility built into QuestionPro that transfers your surveys and their collected responses from XEBO into your QuestionPro account. It connects through the XEBO API, retrieves your survey list, and lets you choose which studies to bring across. Everything runs inside the Migration Center in your account.
You authenticate with an API key and datacenter ID, or with an admin email and password if you prefer OAuth. The tool then fetches your survey library and displays it, allowing you to select exactly what you want to move. For each batch, you decide whether to bring across all responses, only completed responses, or the survey structure on its own. You also pick the destination folder, so imported studies land organized and ready to work with.
Consider a regional healthcare network in the US running patient experience studies across several facilities. Its survey library has grown over the years, and each study includes response data linked to an active tracking program. Rebuilding those surveys by hand in a new platform would take weeks and put historical comparability at risk. Using the XEBO data import tool, the insights team connects via the API, selects the studies it needs, and imports the survey structures and their completed responses in a single batch. The team is working within QuestionPro, preserving its research history intact without a manual rebuild.
The uses of the XEBO data import tool are:
Platform migration without rebuilding: Research teams switching platforms move their existing survey library across without having to recreate every study by hand. Years of design work carry over instead of being repeated.
Protecting tracking and trend data: Teams running continuous tracking studies bring historical response data over alongside the survey structure. Trend analysis holds its value when new waves can be compared against what came before.
Consolidating research programs: Insights and CX teams working across multiple tools pull their studies into a single place and run everything through the QuestionPro Research Suite.
Running a pilot before you commit: You can import a small selection of surveys, work with them in QuestionPro using real data, and evaluate the platform properly before moving the full program.
Migrating in controlled batches: Larger libraries can be moved in stages of up to 50 surveys, so the transition fits around live fieldwork rather than interrupting it.
The advantages of the XEBO data import tool are:
Surveys transfer with their structure intact: Question text and answer options come across as built, which removes the biggest practical barrier to changing platforms.
You decide what response data comes with them: Import all responses, only completed responses, or no responses at all. The migration matches your data governance rules rather than a fixed default.
Up to 50 surveys per batch: You are not moving studies one at a time. An entire program can transfer in a single operation.
Two authentication options: Connect with an API key and datacenter ID, or use OAuth with your admin credentials. Your security team picks the method that fits your policy.
Full visibility on every import: Each batch includes a status view and detailed logs, filterable by survey, so you can confirm exactly what landed and open any study directly in your workspace.
You arrive on a platform built for serious research: QuestionPro supports advanced logic, conjoint analysis, MaxDiff, and AI-powered survey building, so the migration gives you greater research depth, not just a new address.
