Can I search across all submissions of all forms?

    Asked on July 16, 2025 at 1:03 PM

    Is there a way to search all submissions? I have several forms that take payments and it would be great to be able to search all forms at once. I found one thread from three years ago asking a similar question, and the answer was that it would be escalated for potential implementation, but it doesn't seem that it ever was?

    Hi DecadeofDifference,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.

    Currently, there is no option to search submissions across all forms at once. You will need to search each form's submissions individually. You can use the search bar in Jotform Tables to find specific submissions by keywords like names, dates, or transaction IDs within each form.

    Here’s how to search submissions in a form:

    1. Go to My Forms and select the form.
    2. Click on Submissions to open the submission table.
    3. Use the search bar to enter your keyword or transaction ID to find the submission.

    Unfortunately, the feature to search all submissions across all forms simultaneously is not available yet.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Congratulations Mr. AI Bot for telling me exactly what I already knew. I still need an answer to this.

    Hi DecadeofDifference,

    Currently, Jotform does not support searching submissions across all forms at once. You will need to search each form's submissions individually using the search bar in the submission table.

    This feature has been considered but is not yet implemented.

    Stop saying that. Why has it not been implemented if someone three years ago thought it was a good idea?

    Hi DecadeofDifference,

    The feature to search submissions across all forms has been considered but not implemented yet due to prioritization and development constraints. Currently, Jotform focuses on improving individual form submission management with tools like Jotform Tables and Inbox, which offer advanced search and filtering within each form.

    We appreciate your feedback, and such requests help guide future updates.

    How do I get a real person to answer me? Your answers are not helpful, and I don't see an option to say so. The only option I see is "Resolved, close thread" which I do not want to do.

    Hi DecadeofDifference,

    While the feature you're looking for isn't available at Jotform right now, we've gone ahead and escalated your request to our developers. Exactly when or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users also request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.

    Thank you, although I'm skeptical it will happen. That's the same thing that Jotform said three years ago to the other person who asked the question.
