Submission storage and upload space

  • droberts3121
    Asked on August 2, 2019 at 11:42 AM

    I am getting the alerts that my submission storage and upload space are full.

    Is there a way to free up some of that space without upgrading?

    Could there be submissions coming in that are not being recorded?

    If not I will just use a different service. 


    Thank you

    Hi @droberts3121!

    You can delete some of the older submissions to free up some space and remove the alerts of upgrading. Before deleting older submissions you can save all the data and download as a pdf or excel file. To do this please follow the guide below:

    Hi, 


    Thank you for your answer. I was able to clear submissions, but was not able to reset alerts. Also, we usually have many more submissions for this, but this time we only had a few. Were some submissions blocked because we did not have enough space?


    Thanks

    I checked your account and you're still over the limit. You can check your account usage page to see it. Here's the link: https://www.jotform.com/myaccount/usage

    You need to delete the submissions with attachment files to clear your File Upload Storage. Here's a guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/377-How-to-Delete-Form-Submission-Data

    Note: Before deleting your data, I suggest downloading your submission data by following this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/73-How-to-Download-Form-Submissions-as-Excel-CSV-PDF

    I tested one of your forms and it is still working fine.

    It says I have 500 submissions, but I only have 42 submissions in one form... I have deleted all of the other submissions. I am also confused about how I free up upload space? It also says I have 5 forms when I only have 3... 1565390213Screen Shot 2019 08 09 at 5 Screenshot 10

    Please check your Archive Folder and Trash Folder.

    Please keep in mind that deleted submissions are not recoverable. You can delete the forms on your Trash Folder by Purging it.
