ARTICLE

Microsoft Teams Integration

ENGLISH ONLY: This article is only available in English.

SurveyMonkey's integration with Microsoft Teams lets you:

  • Add a personal app where you can create, view, edit, or share surveys and results
  • Create, collect, and view responses directly in a Microsoft Teams channel, group chat, or private chat
  • Share survey results collected in Microsoft Teams or SurveyMonkey in a Channel tab
  • Set up notifications to let the team know when there are new responses or comments

TIP! Based on your account’s response limits, you may need to upgrade your SurveyMonkey plan to view all your responses.

SurveyMonkey Setup

Connecting your account

The first time you install the SurveyMonkey app in Microsoft Teams, you need to log in to your SurveyMonkey account to connect to Microsoft Teams. Your account will store any polls, surveys, quizzes, and responses created and collected in Microsoft Teams.

You can view results in the Analyze Results section of SurveyMonkey or a Microsoft Teams channel, chat, tab, or personal App.

Adding SurveyMonkey as a Personal App

The SurveyMonkey personal app is a private space for you to create, edit, or analyze results of all your polls or surveys.

To add SurveyMonkey as a personal app:

  1. Click ... on the left side panel of Microsoft Teams. You can find all your apps here.
  2. Search for and select SurveyMonkey.
  3. Click Add to install and authorize your SurveyMonkey account.

TIP! You can pin your SurveyMonkey personal app for easy access to your polls or surveys. Click ... on the left side panel, right-click on the SurveyMonkey icon, and select Pin. The SurveyMonkey personal app will appear on the left side panel.

Adding SurveyMonkey as a Messaging Extension

You can create and share a poll, survey, or quiz with others through a conversation in a channel, group chat, or private chat.

To add SurveyMonkey as a messaging extension:

  1. Click New Conversation within a Microsoft Teams channel.
  2. Click ... from the message menu.
  3. Search for and select SurveyMonkey.
  4. Click Add to install and authorize your SurveyMonkey account.

Polling Your Team

Creating a Poll

You can create a one-question survey and share it with your team in a channel, group chat, or private chat.

To create a poll:

  1. Open SurveyMonkey in the personal app or messaging extension in a Microsoft Teams channel or chat.
  2. Click Poll. Multiple Choice questions have a limit of 7 answer options, but you can add up to 50 answer options to a Dropdown question.
  3. Add your question to the Title field.
  4. Add your poll answers to the Choice fields.
  5. To let people leave comments, toggle on Allow comments.
  6. Control your Settings.
    • Keep responses anonymous: Don’t track and store info that identifies the poll takers.
    • Hide Results from channel tab: Don’t display the poll results beneath the poll automatically.
    • Schedule closing: You set when to close the poll.
  7. When you’re ready, click Create Poll in a channel or chat, or My Surveys in the personal app, to copy and share your survey link.

Your team can respond to your poll in a channel, group chat, or private chat. You can also copy a link from your SurveyMonkey personal app and share your poll anywhere. Only one response is recorded per team member. If someone answers the poll again, the most recent answer is saved.

TIP! When you create a poll in Microsoft Teams, a weblink collector is generated and can’t be edited. Errors may occur if you make changes to the weblink.

Your poll results automatically display directly below your poll, so your entire team can view the results.

If you prefer not to display results, turn on Hide Results in your settings. Your survey notification will have a link to view hidden results in SurveyMonkey.
