- **Use Workflow Timezone**: Turn on to use the timezone in the [Workflow settings](/workflows/settings.md) instead of UTC (default). This affects the value of the `submittedAt` timestamp in the node output.

- **Custom Form Styling**: Override the default styling of the public form interface with CSS. The field pre-populates with the default styling so you can change only what you need to.

## Customizing Form Trigger node behavior
130+
131+
### Format response text with line breaks
132+
133+
You can use one of the following methods to add line breaks to form response text:
134+
135+
• Use HTML formatting instead of plain text in the formSubmittedText field
136+
• Replace newline characters (`\n`) with HTML break tags (`<br>`) before sending the response
137+
• Consider using a custom HTML response page if you need more formatting control
138+
139+
### Restrict form access with authentication
140+
141+
You can use one of the following options to add authentication to your form:
142+
143+
• Use the OTP (One-Time Password) field with TOTP node validation for token-based authentication
144+
• Add a Wait node with form authentication as a secondary form page
145+
• Store hashed passwords in a database and compare against form submissions for validation
146+
• Use external authentication providers like Google Forms if you need advanced authentication
