Something I really love about working in a bigger company is the fact that your colleagues can challenge your opinions and teach you new things. A couple of weeks ago a colleague of mine said “Amanda we should really try Forms to ask quick questions in our team” – I said no haha. But this week he showed me, and I have to admit myself defeated, it’s great.


In this blog post I will show you how you can use the Microsoft Forms bot to send a quick poll in a team in Microsoft Teams.


1. Open the team where you want to ask the question, start a new conversation and write @

Add new bots

2. Click Get bots (this might differ dependent on tenant settings). A list of all available bots will open

What availible bots are there?

3. Click on Forms, Forms is now added as a bot in the team


4. To use it type @forms in the conversation

Forms is added

5. To create a new poll with the bot you write:


@Forms Here's a little question for you? Option 1, Option 2, Option 3


To “end” your question you add a question mark. You can add up to 6 different answers divided by a comma.

6. And voila a new poll your team members can answer!

How the poll will look

Perfect for quick polls in a team 😊

Using the Microsoft Forms bot in Teams is a practical way to streamline quick polls and feedback directly inside conversations. It keeps collaboration smooth without forcing people to leave the chat, making decision‑making faster and more transparent. That balance between simplicity and efficiency feels much like playing Slope game, where every move requires focus and precision to stay on track while navigating twists.
