Polls

You can use Forms and Custom Properties in Dart to create simple polls for your team or organization.

Updated over a week ago

Set up a custom property for voting

  • Go to your workspace settings and create a custom property

  • Use a Select property if users should vote for one option, or a Multi-select property if they can choose multiple options

  • Add your poll choices (for example: “Red,” “Blue,” “Green”)

Create or choose a polling dartboard

  • You can choose an existing Dartboard to collect your poll responses

  • Or make a new Dartboard where poll responses (tasks) will be collected

  • Name it something like “Team Polls” or “Voting Board”, in this example COLOR

Create a poll form

  • Go to Forms in your settings

  • Create a new form that sends tasks to your polling dartboard

  • Include the custom property that you just made so users are required to make a selection

  • Optionally, set a default title for the task to clarify what users are voting on (e.g., “Choose your favorite color”)

  • Choose Internal if the poll is only for your organization or public for anyone to take the poll

Share the poll

  • If the poll is for internal use, share the form with Internal access. If public, share the link of the form

  • Users can find the poll by clicking the arrow next to the New task button and selecting the form you created

Visualize poll results

  • Create a new dashboard

  • Choose your polling Dartboard

  • Add a Bar chart widget

  • Hover over the chart, click the “…” in the top right corner, and choose your custom property as the x-axis

  • The chart will show a visual count of each option selected

Additional tip

  • In the form editing screen, using a default title helps clarify the poll topic when someone submits a vote
