You can restrict your form to accept just only one entry per user.  Learn how

How is this restriction achieved?

For each record that is submitted through a form, Zoho Creator captures a few details like who (which user) added the record, what time the record was added, etc. These details are stored in  system fields .

The system field  Added User  stores the username of the user who added the record. Zoho Creator relies on the data stored in this field to validate if a record has already been submitted by a user.
