Can I use LimeSurvey without a database? was created by tnagyadam
Hello,

Is there a way to set up LimeSurvey so it does NOT store the survey results at all?

I would like to skip the survey persistence completely. My use case would be to automatically export the filled surveys into a csv (maybe json) file, and feed these to an API.

I don't want to store the results at all, I would immediately consume them.
Is there any automatic mechanism to export the surveys? If not, would it be difficult to create such an auto-exporting plugin?

Thanks in advance,
Adam
