2. Then, hover your mouse over the form you want to check the submissions from, and click on Inbox on the right side of the page. For example, we selected the Final Profile Output form.

3. Now, in Form Inbox, enter your keyword in the Search bar at the top to make it search for a submission containing the keyword.

You can filter results based on dates, or even narrow them down by specific answers or statuses. It’s a simple and effective way to keep your submissions organized and make sure you’re focusing on the information that matters most. Here’s how to get going:

1. In Form Inbox, click on Filter icon at the top.

2. In the Filter box that opens, you can filter submissions using the following options:
   • Search In — This option shows all the form submissions regardless of their status. It allows you to filter submissions from an Unread, Read, Starred, or Unstarred submission. You can also choose your desired range in the date picker, either use the presets on the right or choose custom dates using the calendar.
   • Advanced Filter — Use this to to filter submissions by field value or answer on the form.
