An option to limit the number of responses
I need to do registrations for events that have only limited number of seats. For that It would be great if I could do a survey that closes after certain amount of responses.

Pouvoir limiter le nombre de réponse à une question. Cela permettrai de faire des inscriptions à des ateliers avec un nombre de places limite.
cela existe sur google form (formranger).
C'est un gros manque de forms. -

I want to open particular survey within my organization but to only targeted audience. Currently anyone with URL is able to respond.

Many good suggestions here, would also like to see a customized response page, for example "your selection is full, you will be added to waitlist"

Can you please add the option to set a form to only allow a certain number of total submissions? That way, instead of telling employees something like "the first 10 people who respond to this form are able to..." Possibly make it to where after so many submission the form is automatically deactivated for further submissions.

We'd also like to see this feature added to Forms.

We definitely need this option for a ton of different reasons!

We would love this option!
One of the only reasons I still must resort to Google Forms is that you can add extensibility through a form limiter for registration for events. I cannot wait for Microsoft to provide a way to do this! -

I think the general principle of this suggestion is an excellent idea. But I would indeed extend it to include alternatives which other people are suggesting here:
- Close the form once the threshold is reached.
- Do not close the form, but offer a waiting list form.
- Limit the number of responses to an option (rather than to the form). -

I'd like this, but not have the form close, but offer a waitlist form instead.

Would also like to see an option to limit the number of responders to an option within a Form.

I am offering a workshop with a limited amount of seats per session. I would like my form to deactivate the choice once it reaches a specific number of responses.

Could be great if we can limit the number of answers, for example, if I need just 25 answers and I share the form with 50 persons, permits me to configure to jus accept the first 25 answers

No, not post the whole form but grey out the option that has reached the threshold. We often use Forms for organizing workshops or seminars. Students/Teachers have to enroll for, say, two workshops out of eight; the number of participants for each workshop is limited to 15. If a workshop is full, it should no longer be possible to select that option, the option should still appear but greyed out or something

I frequently need to send a form to sign up people to join a classroom session or something of that sort. Sometimes I'm sending out to 100+ people to choose from 20 sessions, but I can only fit 10 people in each session. As of now, I need to monitor responses and remove options from the form as they fill up. It'd be much better if this could be automated.

We are using Forms to register students for an event with limited seating. I would like to have the ability to limit the number of responses a form can receive. Once this threshold is met, the form would close.
