Create Polls
Polls during a webinar are interactive tools used to collect responses and opinions from participants. They are typically used to gather feedback, opinions, or quantitative data from the audience during the live presentation.
The speaker sets whether the poll will be anonymous or not during its creation. If the poll is anonymous, it is labeled as an "Anonymous Poll". If the poll is not anonymous, details such as the name and email address are displayed in the detailed results, which are only accessible to the speakers. The attendee can view the poll results once it's completed, but they cannot access details such as the identity of the respondents in the case of a non-anonymous survey.
