Set the look, limits and closing date
In the form builder, open the Settings tab. There you can pick a colour, switch the progress bar and your email address on or off, write the thank-you message, allow one response per person, set Stop after this many responses and choose a Close on date and time. Changes save automatically.

When to use it
For a webinar signup, Anita sets Stop after this many responses to 200, adds a Close on date of the day before the event, and edits the thank-you message to include the joining time.

Common questions
What does the form show about me?
By default people see only the company domain. Turn on Show my email address on the form to show your full address.
What happens when the limit or date is reached?
The form stops taking answers. People who open it see that it is closed or not taking responses right now. A form paused by a monthly limit may open again next month.
