Mar 1, 2025March 2025 Monthly Summary for LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey focusing on key accomplishments, features delivered, and technical impact. Delivered a new Survey Expiration Endpoint to streamline lifecycle management by allowing surveys to be marked as expired and returning the expiration date. This required changes across the service layer and handlers to recognize and process the expire action, and updates to ensure expiration is consistently applied within aggregation and deactivation flows. The change set improves data integrity and supports automated lifecycle policies, reducing exposure to stale surveys and enabling clearer decision points for survey deprecation.
