As a passionate Microsoft Teams user, I greatly appreciate the capability to generate and engage in polls. Polls enable me to efficiently gather perspectives and reach decisions with my team. Though it took me some time to learn how to access the poll results, I wanted to share my understanding to assist others who may encounter the same issue.
Once a poll has been created in Microsoft Teams, it’s easy to view the results. Here’s how:
- First, navigate to the channel or chat where the poll was created. You can do this by simply clicking on the channel or chat name in the left sidebar.
- Scroll through the conversation until you find the message containing the poll. It should have a graph icon next to it.
- Click on the poll message to expand it.
- Below the poll question, you will see the options and the number of votes each option has received.
Voila! You can now view the poll results and get a clear understanding of the preferences of your team members. This information can be invaluable for making informed decisions.
Personally, I find this feature particularly useful when trying to decide on meeting times or gathering opinions on a particular topic. It saves me the hassle of manually collecting responses and allows me to have a quick overview of the preferences within my team.
Viewing the poll results in Microsoft Teams is not only efficient but also convenient. With just a few clicks, you can access valuable data that can help guide your team’s decisions.
It’s important to note that only the person who created the poll or someone with appropriate permissions can view the poll results.
Conclusion

With just a few simple steps, you can access the poll results and make informed decisions based on the preferences of your team members.
