Form over quota - upload space limit

    Asked on February 5, 2021 at 4:16 PM

    Hi!

    I just got notification that I exceeded my storage. If I deleted all my form responses, would that clear out my storage? Or is that an accumulative storage amount that exists regardless of if the information is still stored or not?


    Thanks!

    Hi, thank you for contacting support.

    As per checking, there are still submissions with attachments on your forms. As checked, your uploaded files already reached 104.63 MB right now, which is beyond the subscription's upload space limit of 100MB only (for FREE accounts).

    There are two ways on how to lift the over-limit status of the account. You may either upgrade to a paid plan with higher upload space allocation or delete the existing submission that has uploaded files in it.

    If you choose the second option, you can free up your account's upload space utilization by manually deleting the submissions that have file attachments in them. However, be mindful that this process cannot be undone.

    So, I strongly urge you to make a backup copy of your Submission Data just if you'd still need them in the future. There are plenty of ways to do that. Feel free to pick one that will work for you:

    Hi, 


    So I followed the steps, deleted forms then deleted them out of the trash....and my storage limit still shows the same 105mb/100mb. I didn't delete *all* of the submissions, however, I did delete more than half that had photos uploaded. Which should have brought down the 105mb significantly. Any ideas on what I'm missing?
