Answer a form or poll

The People team wants to hear from you: how your first month went, whether you have everything you need, a quick pulse on the week. A form has several questions and a Submit button. A poll has one or two questions and records each answer the moment you select it.

Steps

Slack

1. Open the direct message or channel post. The questions are laid out inside the message.

2. Answer each one: tick a checkbox, pick one of Very Dissatisfied, Dissatisfied, Neutral, Satisfied or Very Satisfied, type into a text box, or pick a colleague from a people list.

3. Select Submit at the bottom of the message. For a poll, selecting an answer submits it straight away.

4. Slack keeps the message; the answers are sent to Pyn.

Email

1. Select the button in the email. The respond page opens in your browser, with the form’s title at the top. No sign-in is needed.

2. Answer each question. A required question that you leave blank is marked This field is required. when you submit, and the page waits for you to fill it in.

3. Select Submit. For a poll, select the answer that fits; each answer is recorded as soon as you select it.

4. The page replaces the questions with Submitted and Your response has been recorded.

Note

If you open the link again after submitting, the page shows Submitted rather than the questions. If the page says Something went wrong and that the link may have expired or is invalid, the message it came from was withdrawn; ask your People team.

What you should see

Submitted on the respond page, or the Slack message accepting your answers. The People team sees your delivery move to Actioned and can read your answers against your record. Any reminders attached to the message stop.
