Often times we enter fake data into our own form to test workflows or we get spammed with fake accounts. I'd like the ability to delete form submissions so they don't impact the metrics.
I am the PM for the Form Submissions product area. I am excited to inform that we have started to work on this request. I will keep this thread updated once we have delivered this feature. Thank you all for your patience.
Thank you all for taking the time to submit, upvote, and comment on this Idea. We hear you loud and clear, and we agree that this functionality is important. We are currently exploring the possible ways to solve this problem.
Any news about this feature request will be relayed on this thread, so please stay tuned!
My name is Tom I'm on the forms team within HubSpot.
At the moment we don't have plans to allow the deletion of form submissions as this would negatively effect reporting and analytics within the forms tool.
Allowing test submissions is something we've been discussing and we may address submission deletion or test submissions within the future, but for the moment we do not have plans to introduce this functionality within the near future.
Instead of duplicating a tested form and then putting that live – in order to get a fresh and clean one, much more reliable and efficient would be a sort of "reset" -button or deleting of individual views/submissions.
It's a tool for us, let us get all the value out of the tool!
Created a whole flow.. and it wouldn't make sense to duplicate the forms to have empty lists because then I have to retest again as I have to update some IDs to the lists..
I can't believe this hasn't been implemented yet — I just spent time integrating a custom form on our website with the API and went in to clean it up, only to realize all of my testing cannot be deleted. Seriously?
I agree. We often use forms as RSVPs, and people often come back and say they're no longer able to attend. I'd like to be able to delete their RSVP, but not possible if Hubspot doesn't make this change.
Please include the ability to delete submissions within "Forms". I use myself or team members to test the forms and would like to delete my submission. Also, when someone goes back into to change or add something to their form, I now have duplicates. It would be great to somehow be able to merge the two.
Add my name to another person calling for this feature. It is important for keeping data clean and — as others have pointed out — it may also be a privacy concern. This should be implemented as soon as possible.
