# Ready-to-use finishers {#apireference-finisheroptions}

The TYPO3 Form Framework provides several built-in finishers that can be
used out of the box. These handle common post submission tasks such as
sending emails, showing confirmation messages, and saving data.

In addition, third-party extensions may provide further finishers, which
can be found in the [TYPO3 Extension Repository (TER)](https://extensions.typo3.org/).

**[Closure finisher](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-form:concepts-finishers-closurefinisher)**

Executes a custom PHP closure after a successful submission—use
for ad-hoc logic without creating a full class.

**[Confirmation finisher](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-form:concepts-finishers-confirmationfinisher)**

Renders a confirmation/thank-you message (or view) once the form
is submitted.

**[DeleteUploads finisher](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-form:concepts-finishers-deleteuploadsfinisher)**

Removes files uploaded during the submission—useful if after
emailing them you don’t want to keep the files on the server.

**[Email finisher](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-form:concepts-finishers-emailfinisher)**

Sends an email with the submitted data; supports Fluid
templates and placeholders for field values.

**[Flash message finisher](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-form:concepts-finishers-flashmessagefinisher@14.3)**

Shows a flash message to the user after submit (e.g., success or
info notice).

**[Redirect finisher](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-form:concepts-finishers-redirectfinisher)**

Redirects to another page or route after submit; must be last
finisher since it stops subsequent finishers.

**[SaveToDatabase finisher](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-form:concepts-finishers-savetodatabasefinisher)**

Persists submitted form values to a database table according to
your mapping/configuration.
