Tickets left

Thanks Liz “Close typeforms automatically after a set amount of responses” is a feature of the Business package and another £30 a month on top of the £49 pm Plus package that I am on :(

@Liz - wonder if the API would enable a ‘write’ to the database to relieve the inventory, pick up the new balance and write the new balance into a variable of a typeform? 

not sure if @picsoung or @mathio would have done something like that?? 

just a thought

I have an example of embedded typeform that loads a variable from API (from Google Sheet via SheetDB) and then writes via API when the typeform is both started and submitted:

https://mathio.github.io/typeform-embed/html/random-question-from-google-sheet.html

However the value (eg. number of remaining tickets) is passed as typeform hidden field. Anyone could get access to your public typeform and modify the hidden field value. Therefore it is important to do another check after your typeform is submitted. Eg. redirect to a page that will process the response via API and validate if the response (ticket sale in your case) is valid.

In the example above my typeform is loaded with a question from the spreadsheet (eg. like this), however anyone could access the form on a modified URL and provide their own value (eg. like this).
