Is it possible to view individual responses during live poll?

Hi,

Is there a way in which I would be allowed to view the individual responses to a poll as they come in live? Or is the only way to see responses to export them once the poll is finished? (and if so, how do I do this?)

 

Thanks,

Chloe

Hey @chloerb,

When using the word cloud or the open text poll, you can see individual responses as they come in live in your Slido Host Mode. However, you will not see who posted them. To see all individual responses as well as who posted them, you will need to export “Poll results per user” in the Analytics tab. Here is a tutorial for exporting your results.

This is available in all paid plans.

I hope this helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions!

Hi @chloerb,

I have read your response above but where do I access my Slido host mode please? I can’t work out where this is. Please could you help as nothing says “host mode” that I can see. Thanks.

Hi, @Cobby

Host mode is simply what you see when you log in to your Slido account. It’s usually the place where you create, activate and deactivate polls and quizzes or manage questions from the audience. 

Let me share an article with you that might help you understand the different modes of Slido. Basically, you can set up everything in Host mode, then test attendees’ experience in Participant mode and then preview everything in Present mode and show it to your participants. Both Participant mode and Present mode are accessible from your Admin mode. 

Hope that makes it clearer! Feel free to ask if you have any outstanding questions. Also, our Knowledge Base articles can be of a great help if needed. 

All my best,
