Disable the form on a date

    Hi,


    Is there any way a form deadline can be connected to a calendar app? I mean just by pressing a button, not entering the data myself. An email on the deadline saying how many submissions there are would also be helpful.

    I have looked around without much success.

    Hi there,

    Kindly elaborate more on what you're trying to accomplish so we can assist you better. If you want to connect your form to a calendar app, you may try using the Google Calendar Integration.

    What I mean is is there any way we can receive an automated notification when a form reaches its deadline? Whether by automatically adding it to google calendar or with an automated email on the deadline saying how many submissions there are?

    Hi there,
    You may set up a custom date when the form will be automatically disabled. Just go to Settings-> Form settings-> Disable on date:

    However, it's not possible to send an email automatically with the number of submissions received.
    You can check submission in your Jotform account by following this guide:

    Please don't hesitate to contact us if you will need any futher help.

    Thank you, Rosa. I already know that, and use it all the time but it would be nice to get an email reminder when the form hits its deadline. Maybe it could be added to the feature request list?

    No, that's great if it can be made into a feature! Thanks for your help.
