Track usage quotas

Your organization's OpenForms account has the following usage quotas:

  • Published forms
  • Form responses
  • Storage
  • Users

These quotas depend on your organization's plan and your add-ons.

What happens if you exceed a quota 

Once a quota is reached, that feature will be disabled,

  • Exceeding your form quota with prevent your organization publishing more forms. 
  • Exceeding your data quota will prevent your organization from receiving additional responses, uploading new custom document templates, or generating new custom documents. 
  • Exceeding your response quota will prevent your organization from receiving additional responses.
  • Exceeding your user quota will disable editing and publishing actions for all users. This means that:
  • Reviewers still have full access to the review center.
  • Form authors can still view forms, download and export responses, but not create, edit, or publish forms.
  • Responses can still be accessed via the API.
  • Admins can view all admin area settings, and deactivate users, but not create or edit settings or users.
  • Account owners can use the Azure AD connector to assign or de-assign Azure AD user groups. 

If you have the appropriate permissions, you can always deactivate users, disable forms, or delete responses to get back under a quota.

Quotas at a glance

Anyone in your organization can see how it's tracking against plan quotas by viewing the usage banner in the Forms area.

This banner details your organization's current plan, published forms, monthly responses and storage use.

These statistics are updated every 30 seconds, and are useful for planning the creation or publication of new forms which may push your organization over a usage quota.

Deleting a form or a response will immediately update the usage banner so you can see the effect of clearing space.

If your organization is approaching, or exceeds, one of its quotas, we'll prompt you to request a plan upgrade. Once we receive an upgrade request, we'll contact the account owner to discuss your options.

Email notifications

Other users can opt into these email notifications by going to their Profile and checking the appropriate notification checkboxes.
