    Yes, you can make a form that provides users to save and return later to complete it. 

    Please follow the steps below:

    1. Click "Preferences" in Setup&Embed tab.

    Your form is a long form. If you need to use Page Break tool in the future, you can also use this option "Continue Forms Later" in Preferences. 

    In addition to that, there is another way to save form and continue later if you use "Page Break" in your form. Please follow the guide for more details: How to Save Forms and Continue Later

     If you need any further assistance, please let us know.

    Thank you.
