For a video tutorial, check out:

Step 1 - Navigate to your form's dashboard and access the response list by selecting one of the following options:
  • The Form Response List button under Quick Links
  • The Manage link in the header of the Response Data panel
  • The Number of Responses link inside the Response Data panel

The dashboard of a form. The "Form Response List" button, "Number of Responses" link, and the Response Data panel's "Manage" link are highlighted.

Step 2 - Click the Details button next to the response you wish to delete. You will be brought to the response's page.

Step 4 - A window will open and ask for the form response's identifier to be typed or pasted into its Delete Confirmation field. Once this is done, the Delete button can be clicked to finalize the response's deletion.

After deletion, the form response will disappear from the form's response list, and will no longer affect registration limits or waitlists.

WARNING: A deleted form response cannot be retrieved or recovered. Ensure that you have selected the correct response before you confirm its deletion.
