New: Block form submissions by email address

October 24, 2024
We recently released a new tool to help protect your public-facing forms from unwanted submissions. Organization administrators now have the ability to mark specific email addresses as “spam”, preventing further submissions from them.
If you are an Organization Administrator, you’ll find this new feature under People > Settings (dropdown) > Manage spam list.
From here, you can easily manage email addresses you would like to block from submitting forms.
If someone fills out a form using one of these email addresses, their submissions will be filtered into a spam folder and will not display alongside other submissions
In addition, notifications will not be sent, and automation will not run. Finally, if you view a profile with one of these email addresses, you’ll see that an Organization Administrator has marked the address as spam.
We hope this feature helps reduce unwanted form submissions and look forward to extending it to other areas of the product in the future. If there are any enhancements you’d like to see, please let us know by reaching out to our Support Team.
