How do I create a poll and participate in one?

Polls help you quickly collect feedback or make decisions together with your team.

Anyone can create a poll as long as they have permission to create a post in the respective Channel.

Create a poll

  1. Create a new post and tap the poll icon.

  2. Enter your question.

  3. Add your answer options (up to 12 answers, 100 characters each).

  4. Choose your settings:

    • Multiple choice (allow selecting more than one option)

    • Voting mode:

      • Anonymous

      • Non-anonymous

      • Visible to admins only

    • End date (the poll closes automatically)

  5. Reorder your answer options using drag & drop.

  6. Publish your post.

Note: After publishing, only certain settings can be changed (e.g., removing the end date).

Participate in a poll

  • Click an answer to vote.

  • If multiple choice is enabled, you can select more than one option.

  • You can change or remove your vote while the poll is open.

  • Once the poll reaches its end date, it closes automatically.

  • Results update in real time.

  • For non-anonymous polls, the names of voters are visible.

Export results (Web & Mobile)

Channel admins and post authors can export poll results as a CSV file – on both Web and Mobile by clicking on the download icon at the bottom right of the poll.
