Microsoft Teams: Create a survey - how it works

If you want to create a survey in a team channel or chat in Microsoft Teams, it works with just a few clicks without additional tools thanks to the integration of Microsoft Forms. Here's how to use the Forms tool and what to keep in mind.

How to create a poll in Microsoft Teams

In Teams, you have several options to communicate and share data with other team members. These include polls, which can be posted directly to chats or channels through Microsoft Forms integration.

1. Start Teams and access the channel or chat where you want to share the poll.
2. Click the Forms feature below the message entry in the navigation.
3. A new window will then open, giving you the option to specify a question and answer choices. If you want to allow multiple answers to your question, this works by activating the slider at the option "multiple answers".
4. You also have the option to anonymize the answers received and automatically share the results of the survey after completion.
5. Klicken Sie auf „Speichern“, wenn Sie alle Einstellungen getroffen haben.
6. Bevor die Umfrage gesendet wird, erhalten Sie eine Vorschau, in der Sie noch einmal alles überprüfen und gegebenenfalls bearbeiten können.
7. Klicken Sie abschließend auf „Senden“, um die Umfrage zu teilen. Die Ergebnisse der Umfrage werden Ihnen in Echtzeit angezeigt.
