  description: The Screendoor API from the Department of Better Technology (CityBase Screendoor) lets you programmatically manage online forms, submissions ("responses"), evaluation workflows, statuses, labels, and assignments. Screendoor is used by government agencies and organizations to build paperless forms and manage intake, review, and approval processes. All endpoints are relative to the base URL and authenticated with an API key passed as the `api_key` URL parameter.
