Setting an expiration date and time for a form can be useful on many occasions. Not all forms are meant to receive submissions all the time. For example, if you are planning an event, sometimes you need your registration form to restrict the number of registrations. Maybe you have a deadline or limited seats.

- To change the form’s status
- To specify the total number of submissions received

Choose the option that best suits your needs. Active between is useful with registrations or contests, where you want to make sure that no overdue submissions are made.
Limit submissions
In order to limit the total number of submissions go to your form’s Settings – Security section. Look for the Anti Spam Protection section. Tick the checkbox next to Limit the total number of submissions.
