How to create validation min/max number in a form?

I’m trying to create a form with multiple fields. Two fields the user needs to input a number but in Field A the min and max needs to be 1,000 and 700,000. Then Field B needs to be 20 and 900. Any help is appreciated. I keep getting confused because here https://support.wix.com/en/article/working-with-user-input-validation-in-the-settings-panel mentions the settings panel but there is nothing in my field settings that mentions min/max

To start with, as you are using the Wix Editor settings only and no code here, then it is not a code related issue and you should be going through Wix Support for more help.

So why can you not just set the minimum and maximum for each user input set s number type for the specific field that you are saving that inputs value to?

Maximum and Minimum
The Number type of Input element lets you set a maximum value, minimum value, or both. Setting either of these limits means that the form does not submit if the value entered does not fall within the set limitations.

My point is that there is no settings like that in forms. If I add an input element then the min/max settings appear in that field but not if I add a contact form. This is what my field settings look like on my form

So I think I need to use code validate it

https://support.wix.com/en/article/corvid-about-validating-user-input-with-code here is an article mentioning the code required but it only gives the example of validating an email.

Wix Forms won’t work with onCustomValidations as if you tried it on a Wix Form then it will work on the field itself, however it will still save the form into your submission table.

Have a read of this previous forum post about it.
https://www.wix.com/corvid/forum/community-discussion/user-input-and-validation-message

$w.onReady(function () {
});

$w("#input6").onCustomValidation((value, reject) => {
if ($w('#input6').value > 1000 || $w('#input6').value < 700000) {
reject("Number is invalid");
}
});

Simple answer here is to not use the Wix Forms app and make up your own user input form.

Here is an example where I did it for a number already in the database.

$w.onReady(() => {
$w("#dataset1").onReady(() => {

$w("#input1").onCustomValidation((value, reject) => {
if ($w('#input1').value > $w('#dataset1').getCurrentItem().number || $w('#input1').value < 0) {
reject("Number is invalid");
}
});
});
});
