Start a poll

Step 1 of 3
  1. In the writing box, Add to the message, then Poll.
  2. Write the Question and the Choices (Add a choice for one more).
  3. If needed: Several answers allowed, Anonymous vote (you see how many votes, never who), Poll ends. Then Post the poll.

A poll works in a direct message too.

Write a post

Step 1 of 3
  1. Add to the message, then Post.
  2. Pick the Type of post — Update, Announcement, Idea or Question —, a Title and the Text.
  3. Tick Notify the channel's members by email if everyone should see it, then Post.

The post shows as a card in the channel; replies become its comments. Show filters the channel: Everything, Posts or Polls.

Schedule a post

Step 1 of 2
  1. In the post, open Plan the post.
  2. Or pick a Posting date and a Posting time, then Schedule.

Only you see it until then. Your planned posts, at the top of the channel, lets you edit or delete it.

Pin a message

On a message, Pin: it's “Pinned at the top of the conversation”. The Pinned messages button finds them all; Unpin removes it.
