Creating a flow with forms data and amount of forms answers

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Good morning everyone!
Sorry if I'm breaking any rule, this is my first post here.

I'm trying to build a Flow taking data from Forms, but it looks like I'm not able to fulfill my needs. Let me explain.

I've built a Form module with meal timings (useful to avoid issues related to Covid-19).
I've different options (like 12:30/13 . 13/13:30 and so on). Every turn can get max 8 people inside (and unfortunately, in forms there's not a way to limit the amount of answers for a selected entry).

To solve this, I thought: Hey, let's create a flow and drop an email to the 9th user who selects a turn and tell him that he needs to book another turn.

It looks like I'm not able to find a decent way to count the amount of answers in the form.

Is there anyone able to give me some kind of suggestion about this?

I also hope the structure is clear enough.

    Hi @dallo28  could you post a pic of the form?

    Sure, there you go. As you can see, it's pretty simple, but this needs to be extended for every day (so, there will be 30 questions like this one).

    There can be max 8 users per turn, and the 9th (who will still be able to pick his turn in the form) needs to get an alert with a Flow.

    It would be super easy if Forms allowed limiting the amount of answers, but that's not the case.
