My JotForm is filled with spam submissions

    Hello.

    Ive had more than 100 submissions to one of my JotForms that are all populated with spam information (I think, I haven’t had time to check each form yet)

    after seeing all these entries, I went in and disabled the form for right now.

    how can I open up the form again without getting hundreds of spam submissions?

    is there a way to identify the real ones and delete all the spam ones quickly?

    thanks

    Thank you for reaching support,

    You may enable Unique submissions to prevent the same browser, same IP address, or both from being able to submit the form again: https://www.jotform.com/help/64-how-to-set-unique-submissions-on-a-form

    Or add a ReCaptcha field to make sure that users are live users and not spam programmers submitting the form.

    Here is the related guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/205-how-to-add-a-captcha-field

    I hope that helps.

    Best.
