Use polls to get instant feedback on a question.
A poll is a fast and fun way to ask a multiple choice question in the community. When you
create a poll, you define the question and the possible answers. For example, you could
create a poll asking the community if your team should change a workflow process or
create a bagel day on Fridays. Polls appear on the home page of the space it's created
in. As people respond to the poll, results are shown graphically as colored bars. (A
person can vote only once in the poll.)
To create a poll:
- Click Create, then click Poll, and then select the space where you
want the poll to live.
- Give the poll a title and description. The title will appear above the list of
options in the published poll, so you should use it as the poll's question. For
example, "Where should we have the holiday party?" The description will appear on
the page that lists the poll's full results.
- Create answer choices. For example, choices for the holiday party poll might be, "In
the office," "In a restaurant," "At someone's house," and so on.
- Set when the poll will first be available to other community members. You can make
this now, or at a later date.
- Set when the poll should end. When the poll ends, it will stop being available for
responses and people won't be able to vote anymore. People will still be able to
view the poll's results.
