We have a limited offer where we're capping the number of free samples we're sending out. I'm looking to automate something in Hubspot to send me a notification once we reach a certain number of submissions. A looked thru the workflow options, but don't see anything right off that would help with this. Please suggest ways we can make this happen.
All solutions that currently exist for form capping are workarounds and way to technical. I would rather like to see a solution within the form settings, e.g. like this:
Activate Capping? If yes,
- define max. number of submissions
- type in form message to appear for the visitor if max. number submissions has been reached.
- send alert to HubSpot User if max. number submissions has been reached
Goot idea. Would be even better to automatically deactive the registration form (and show a tect message instead of the form) to make sure no one else is signing up for an event which is booked out.
I agree that a feature like this would be very useful. This would allow my company to use HubSpot forms also for special cases such as event registrations, for example.
Hey @mkarsten I'm not aware of any out-of-the-box feature in HubSpot that does this. So I would absolutely vote for this feature request if you posted it on HubSpot's Idea Exchange.
It might be worth posting this question on HubSpot's developers forum, to see if a custom solution is possible using HubSpot's forms API. On this forum you'll find a wealth of API knowledge from HubSpot's own engineering team and partner web developers 🙂
Someone commented today with an API solution, so you were right.:) Unfortunately, our internal department that has the team members that could do this coding is booked for the year with other priorities.
