You can use Microsoft’s Forms to conduct surveys and voting, quizzes and polls. In Teams, you can make a quick query to a channel, which means one question that is made on the message tab. Or you can import an existing Forms query as a new tab or create a new query.

Teams built-in quick query

To start a quick query, click on the Forms-symbol below the message box.

Enter the question and answer options. If necessary, add more response options. You can also specify if there is more than one answer option. Click the Save button.

Now you see the query as it will show for the respondents. If the query is ready, click Send. If necessary, you can also return to edit the question.

The question appears in the chat stream in Teams and can be answered. The results will also appear immediately in the message stream.

Forms in Teams

You can import an existing Forms survey to Teams or create a new one by choosing the + button from the Teams page’s upper edge.

Click Forms, and then select whether you want to create a new form or if you want to import an existing one. Note that you also need to choose whether the tab will appear in the Collect Responses view or the Show Results view.

The display method you selected appears as a tab. You can also add both views as tabs if necessary. Note that all team or channel members can see the form, including the results.
