# Disable form

`POST /forms/{formID}/disable`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.omnisend.com/api`
- URL: `https://api.omnisend.com/api/forms/{formID}/disable`
- Auth: one of:
  - OAuth 2
    - Client credentials
    - Token URL: `https://app.omnisend.com/oauth2/token` scopes: `forms.write`
  - API key in header `Authorization`

Disable a single form by ID. Disabling stops serving the form to visitors and moves it to `disabled` status;
the form and its content are preserved and can be enabled again later.
Disabling an already disabled form succeeds (idempotent).

A/B test version forms cannot be disabled directly, and a form that owns an active
A/B test cannot be disabled; manage the A/B setup instead.

**Scopes:**
`forms.write`

**Rate Limiting:**
This endpoint is rate limited to 40 requests per minute.
