Form scheduling lets you define exactly when a form starts accepting responses and when it stops — without needing to manually open or close it. Outside the scheduled window, respondents see a themed message instead of the form.
Form scheduling is available on the Pro plan and above.

Setting a schedule

  1. Open the form in the studio.
  2. Click the Settings icon (⚙) in the canvas toolbar.
  3. Scroll to the Schedule section.
  4. Click Set schedule to open the schedule dialog.
  5. Set an Open date and/or a Close date.
  6. Save.
You can set either date independently:
  • Open date only — the form is inaccessible until that date, then stays open until you close it manually.
  • Close date only — the form is open now but closes automatically at the specified date and time.
  • Both — the form is only accessible within the defined window.

Timezones

Dates and times are entered in your local browser timezone and stored in UTC. The schedule is enforced server-side, so respondents in other timezones experience the same open/close moments regardless of their local time.

What respondents see

The messages are displayed on a styled page that inherits your form’s theme — respondents see your brand, not a generic error screen.

Clearing a schedule

  1. Open Form SettingsSchedule.
  2. Click Set schedule.
  3. Clear the date fields you want to remove.
  4. Save.
Removing a close date re-opens the form indefinitely. Removing an open date makes the form immediately accessible (subject to other access controls).

Interaction with invite-only access

When a form has both scheduling and invite-only access enabled:
  • The schedule is enforced first — if the form is outside its window, all visitors (including invitees) see the closed message.
  • Within the window, invite-only access verification proceeds normally.
This means you can time-limit an invite-only form without manually revoking individual invitees.
