I have an online form that received nearly 100 inquiries in one day that were exactly the same and I suspect were created by an automated bot. How can I eliminate this from happening?
I did add a required field. Not sure that this helped or not. I am using your platform primarily to avoid this exact SPAM issue.

You can one of the captcha widgets in order to reduce automated submissions, please let us know if the problem persists

I can, but I must admit that I am disappointed with your response. I was under the impression that this type of SPAM prevention would be built into your robust system.

Another approach you can use is to limit the number of submissions per IP address using the unique submissions property

You can also set unique submissions based on a field such as an email address
I hope this addresses you issue in a much more better way.
