Can you limit the responses in a Forms date field?

I am using MS Forms as a request form for an IT service. I would like to limit the date field so that the user/requestor is unable to fill out the 'due date' prior to our SLA timing (one week).

Is it possible to restrict that date field so that a respondent cannot select a date prior to a week from the current date?

    Dear Green,

    Welcome to the forum here.

    I'm afraid that Microsoft Forms may not have such features. Generally, for the validation feature, you may use Microsoft Forms Pro with Regex Expressions.

    To use Microsoft Forms Pro, you may need Dynamics 365 Customer Voice which is a new name of Microsoft Forms Pro.

    However, it may still have some customization limitations. To fully meet your requirement in your environment, I suggest you use PowerApps instead of Microsoft Forms.

    You can create the form as follows.

    Type the formula If(DatePicker1.SelectedDate<=DateAdd(Today(),6),true,false) on Visible on TextInput1.

    If you need more requirements, welcome to post back with your updates at your convenience for our confirmation.

    Thanks for your effort and time!
