Thanks, Kev... This saved my presentation this morning ... couldn't even remember how to open Polls ... lol ... but I was able to follow along with you and get my poll set up in time to use it during my meeting. You are the BEST!!!!
Kevin's great! Quick, helpful ways to max out Microsoft Teams. As a trainer, polls/quizzes are a perfect tool to create engagement and assess learning as you go. I can't thank you enough, Kevin.
1:44: "Once gain, people can vote before, during or after a meeting, so it really should be clear when people can vote." Love it - made me laugh out loud in the room.
When launching a poll in Teams, this didn't pop up on the main screen as shared at 07:48 but only in chat as a pop up '[name] sent you a card ... '. My test was with a Chromebook Teams app. Is there anything else that needs activating (or sharing ) for this main screen pop up to happen?
Kevin, Great video as are all your videos! Q: Is there a way to add the "+" button in a meeting created via a channel? I can create the poll as you illustrated in your video directly from MS Calendar. When I go to MS Teams Calendar to add the MS Forms Poll tab in my class meetings created thru the MS Teams Channel, the "+" button is not available to add MS Forms Polls. Any suggestions? Again, thanks for all the great videos you have posted - amazing and easy to follow!
I also don't have the "+" button on Teams. I still have no idea how to prepare polls prior to a Teams meeting - wish it wasn't this hard. So much time wasted. (I added Forms when I went to my calendar in Outlook, but I still can't even see it there...no idea where it went...*sigh)
Hello, Kevin! I have a question. Why can't I add a new tab to my planned meeting (as you do it in the video)? I don't even have this feature (the plus symbol "+" is absent). What's wrong with my Teams application? Do the features available differ depending on the region the Teams application is used?
Really useful function, but doesn't appear to be an option for me. When I click into a meeting I only have 'chat', 'details' and 'scheduling assistant' as options at the top of the page. There is no '+'!
I was going to skip this video, because I thought I knew everything there was to know about using Forms for polls in meetings, but I was wrong. Leaned a few new things. Thanks.
Hi Kevin, thanks you for the video. I have a question, is it possible to create a poll template, to re use in another meeting? The idea is for example to ask a set of questions to customers and be able to analyze responses collected in a unique excel. Thank you
Well Done.. I am non native speaker and i would like to have much more practise in english - but i do understand it really good. And the presentation was also verry good and easy to catch. the only thing that you can improve if you want is: play a bit arround with the speed and the sound, as it sounds sometimes a bit monotone. this could increase the attraction to follow it. but this is for sure complaining on a verry high level. the information is the focus and that is great!
When the meeting is created in a specific channel you won't have the "+" tab. (use standard forms bot instead - less parameters but effective) Do not fill the "add channel" element and you will have the option to add "Forms" tab. I hope this helps
I don't have the plus sign even when I create a new meeting from calendar, even before filling in anything including the channel. I just updated so what else can I try to fix this?
I cannot find + icon in the detailed meeting view. In fact I only got chat/details/schedule assistant. You have meeting notes and whiteboard tabs, how do I add those extra tabs. Using Teams Ed plan, Poland, Teams ver. 1.3.00.30866
Hi Kevin how do you get all the options in the meeting (whiteboard, polls, etc) from a meeting set up in the Teams Calendar. Currently I have use the Outlook calendar to set up a meeting and then go to the Teams calendar with all the options.
Think of running a class over MS Teams. I'm going to have the same surveys every time I run the class. Can I have an arsenal of surveys / survey templates and just add them to a meeting? Or do I have to manually create the surveys every time?
@@KevinStratvert I guess that the above explanation will work only in the chat meetings. I do have the add button in my chatbox. I am able to create the poll during or before the meeting via chat box but I am unable to see the add button while creating a TEAMS invitation via a channel. Any idea on what could be the issue?
@@KevinStratvert I have the same issue. I am an admin but there are no such choice in the admin center for Teams, I´m afraid. The thing is that it works fine in a meeting that are scheduled with individual invitations but when you schedule a meeting in a Teams channel, there are no plus sign to press, to add the poll.
Hi, I think this will be in the version. I am using the free version with a 365 subscription and I don't have the calendar menu point and Microsoft Forms is not available when I click the "+" button.
The poll currently only allows multiple choice questions. For other types, you have to create separately in Forms and then paste the Forms URL into the meeting. You can request additional polling functionality integrated into Teams here: microsoftteams.uservoice.com/
Is it possible to set a timer for people to take the poll ? For example, if I want to give them 10 seconds, is there a way to set that before I launch the poll? Thanks for the video! It was very helpful!
Hi Kevin - love your instructional videos on teams. Could you perhaps let me know whether I can set up a webinar with registration forms, polls', etc. for another person in my team who will be presenting and running the webinar from his computer? I have watched many of your videos and could not pick this up. Have a good day
This is a great, easy to follow video learning how to set up polls in Teams. Is there a way in Forms to do a poll with an open ended question that allows participants to type in their responses?
Seems like you cannot add Polls in Channels meetings. You have to create a meeting outside of the channel to add "Polls". Will there be an update where you can add Polls in your channel meetings?
Thanks so much for the headsup! I had this problem just now. But this is indeed the solution. Shame though that it can't be done through a channel meeting.
Is there a way to create a set of polls and use them in multiple different meetings without having to manually create them each time. Like a duplicate or copy to function?
Thanks for all your videos. In this particular topic, When I follow your instructions (go to the metting, select chat with participants, add a tab and forms) I do not get the options you show but instead I just get the option to create or use an existing form. So I cannot launch the polls later, or close them, etc. Maybe it is related with the "new experience" in ms teams?
We have tried Polly and Polleverywhere web services in Live Events. They have instant result graphics that are great. The free accounts only allow 25 responses in a month or meeting...so recurring cost exploded fast. They want subscriptions which we can't use in gov because of cloud based app security restriction. I hope MS continues to develop graphics in results for forms. Thanks for this.
hi dear, wonderful easy applicable video but unfortunately I do not have( + )in my meetings bar to add forms or poll. do you any suggestions to fix that (in the meeting bar I only have (chat details and scheduling assistant)
Thanks for your sharing Kevin! Seems that meetings scheduled under specific team work differently when conducting synchronous or asynchronous polls using MS Forms.
Do you have to create the meeting invite from Teams to be able to create a poll before the meeting? I normally create Teams meeting invite from MS Outlook and I can't see/access the meeting details from Teams until during the meeting.
Do you think this would be a good option for a live scavanger hunt (objects would be scattered through the presentation) or do you have a better option to carry my activity in a teams meeting?
How come this changes completely when creating a meeting in an established Team channel? I can create a poll exactly like this for a random meeting in my calendar, but when trying to add the Forms tab to a meeting that I've scheduled inside a Teams channel, it's completely different. Instead of creating a poll, it wants to create an entire form for the channel. This seems like an immense oversight. Please let me know if there's a way to create a pop up poll just like this for meetings scheduled in an actual Team. Thanks!
Hey @kevin - do you know how to allow the poll to be answer by guest? They can actually see the poll but cannot answer. While a form can be answer by people outside of your organization. Thanks a ton if you have a tip or workaround.
I'm also frustrated by this - it seems like the poll option only works for random calendar meetings, and the Forms changes completely for meetings in existing channels.
Thanks for the vid! Learned a lot. Can you please add if you have some time, topic on how to limit multiple response and that when the participant voted, it automatically locks in his vote so that it can no longer be changed???? PLease....
Kevin! Hope you see this in time. My attendees are getting the "This bot is disabled. Contact your IT admin for more information". I'm browsing through the teams admin center and can't find anythig restricting polls. I have it allowed so not sure why they're getting this message when trying to submit an answer.
Could I create a poll in a meeting I did not create? I sometimes help to host meetings, if I could create the questions ahead of time and launch the poll just before the end, that would be great!
Kevin, I own a Lenovo laptop and an iPad. I’m trying to follow your instructions. However under calendar after I create the meeting, I don’t have the top menú as you do. I have tried other ways, I can add a pool and I see it under the top menu under my Teams general meeting but I cannot make go live. I want an interactive poll as you did. Can you please help?
I don't find the + (add) icon in calendar to add polls or white board, can anyone help me how to add this since it only show details and Scheduling Assistance Tab not the tab shown in the video
is there a way to get class feedback so that only I can view the results (as the teacher), I want all my students to answer to assess progress during the lesson, but I don't want them to see each others responses as they will copy :) Also, a way to track how many of the attendees have responded (real time)... Polly has this feature, but wondered if the poll function using forms could be adapted as well?
Hi there, great video! I've created a Teams meeting in a shared mailbox. As this meeting isn't 'my' meeting, is it still possible to obtain editing rights so that I can prepare polls beforehand?
Kevin Can you suggest how can I effectively conduct the lecture on Numericals ensuring all students are learning. Can you suggest any feature of MS team?
How / Is it possible to run a (pre-prepared) poll during a Teams meeting and also have those viewing a recording of the same meeting later add their vote to the same poll while precluding anyone from voting multiple times?
Hi Kevin. I tried running a poll online however only two of four people had a Poll Tab. Is it something to do with whether they access Teams via the Web, or using an on board app? Any suggestions?
I do not have the plus tab in my scheduled meetings. I see that this comment has been made before but have not seen a response that was helpful. Any ideas? I am a professor and have a separate team for each class. I really need this functionality. I can create the polls in Forms, I just cannot launch in the meeting.
Hi, I only have the polls if I invite the people to the meeting. If I add a channel to the meeting, the polls- and the whiteboard-tab disappears in the calendar view. So I can't create my polls before these meetings. Is this a normal? And if so, is MS working on it? Best regards
You can create polls through your Office account by using forms and then add them to a team. That way you can use the same forms for different meetings. You can save all your forms in your Office account

I'm creating a poll for tonight's lesson.. Perfect timing Thank you very much indeed Kevin...
Great timing!
Thanks. Love from india 🇮🇳🇮🇳
How can i see that option + icon to add forms this is not showing up
ok I figured it out. The way I was able to see the + sign was by adding attendees first, otherwise it wont show up. I hope this helps
I don’t have the Forms button in my meeting. How do I get it?
1:08 to me, there is no option 'add tabs' or '+' button at all
Same here there is no + to add form. ☹️

I have the same problem. Any one solved it?
Same. Any update on this problem?
