Remove HTML document elements from JS embed?
Hi,
I've created a form and want to embed it using JS. However, the JS snippet seems to include HTML document elements:
document.write("<!DOCTYPE html>"+"\\n");
document.write("\<html lang=\"en\">"+"\\n");
document.write("<head>"+"\\n");
document.write(" \<meta charset=\"UTF-8\" />"+"\\n");
document.write(" \<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1\">"+"\\n");
This makes it difficult for me to embed the form in the middle of an existing page.
How do I remove these HTML document elements?
Thanks!

Scheduling a Form for a certain time of the day
I am trying to create a form for takeout orders at our club. We would only like the form to be active when we are open. Instead of doing this manually everyday, I was wondering if there was a way for the form to automatically close at a specific time of day.
I know that Formstack allows us to do this for specific dates, but I was only looking for certain hours of the day.
Thank you!

Form history and user activity via API?
It doesn't look like it, but are there endpoints for finding:
1. Form history (i.e. when a form was updated and by whom)
2. User activity: what form(s) a user changed and when; when a user last signed in
We hibernate our users based on activity. Currently it's a manual process to determine who to hibernate. If we can determine programmatically who signed in and whether they were actually active in the system, we could automate the hibernation process.

API requests to retrieve form submissions are NOT working
We have several forms for which we call the API to retrieve form submissions that have been running OK for about 2 years. On 7/11/23, one of the forms (which contains sensitive data and is encrypted and for which we send an encryption password with the GET request) stopped working as far as retrieving form submissions. The GET request returns either of the following two messages : {"status":"error","error":"Unauthorized"} -or- {"status":"error","error":"An encryption password was not supplied"}
this is what our get request looks like (calling from Powershell):
.\\curl.exe -sS --request GET -H "X-FS-ENCRYPTION-PASSWORD:xxxxxxxx" --url "<https://www.formstack.com/api/v2/form/xxxxxxx/submission.json?min_time=2023-07-11> 17:16:02&data=true&expand_data=true&per_page=100" --header "Authorization: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
this request currently returns: {"status":"error","error":"An encryption password was not supplied"}
Also, when I test using this form: <https://developers.formstack.com/reference/form-id-submission-get>, I get the same error result.
However, note that if I remove the 'data=true' and 'expand_data=true' URL Query params, the GET request actually does work and returns no error message. However, we need these params, as otherwise we won't get the complete data for each record.
Also for a period of about 3 hrs yesterday late afternoon(7/20), GET requests for submissions against all of our other forms (which are not data encrypted) also stopped working in the same manner, but at this point, seems to be working again.

Javascript for regular Formstack Forms?
Is it possible to add Javascript to regular Formstack forms? Some of the "recipes" used in the examples for how to use Javascript with Salesforce forms would be very useful for my regular formstack forms as well (see <https://help.formstack.com/s/article/Form-Settings-Overview>).
Also, on a similar note, is it possible for users to create plugins? Or, are plugins only available if the Formstack devs release them?
The reason I'm asking these two questions is because I would like to add more complex validation to my Formstack forms. For example, it'd be nice to have a way to enforce a policy that only one word be entered into a name field. Or, perhaps I want to have multiple questions with the same set of answers, but only allow users to use an answer only once per submission. Etc...etc...
