Good news! You can now log into Slido in Teams with your Webex credentials.
Add Slido to your Teams meeting
You can now integrate Slido with your Microsoft Teams meeting in advance using Teams Calendar or Outlook, or during the meeting:
Using Microsoft Teams calendar to add Slido
Before you can add Slido to your meeting, first schedule the meeting and hit Save. Afterwards, open the meeting by clicking Edit.
You can then add Slido to your meeting:
-
Click the + button in the menu bar and choose Slido
-
Log in with your Slido account or sign up
-
Choose whether you wish to create a new Slido event or use an already existing one

Slido in Teams works in a Web browser and on iOS and Android devices, for both participants and hosts.
Schedule Slido in Outlook or on Microsoft Teams
Before you can add Slido to your meeting, you’ll need to schedule the meeting first.
Once done, open the meeting in Teams Calendar to add the Slido app:
-
Click the + button in the menu bar and choose Slido
-
Log in with your Slido account or sign up
-
Choose whether you wish to create a new Slido event or use an already existing one
- Create your polls before the meeting directly from your calendar event.
Don’t see Slido among the apps? Please contact your IT department as there might be restrictions in place and Slido app needs to be whitelisted.
Please note that you have to add Slido individually to each meeting where you want to use it.
Adding Slido to an ongoing Teams meeting
To add Slido during a Teams meeting, you can use the Add an app button.
Depending on your meeting policy, other meeting participants are able to add Slido to a specific meeting. You can set your preference in the Meeting options.
Once the meeting starts:
- Click on the + button on the menu bar
- Select Slido from the list
- Log in to your Slido account or sign up
- Select your existing Slido event or create a new one

Slido now works for participants joining a Teams meeting from a different organization. Just make sure you’re using the latest desktop or web browser version and it should work perfectly!
For each meeting, Slido needs to be added individually.
Prepare your meeting
Afterwards, you can set up your polls and Q&A session as needed, the same way as if you were in Slido admin.

Collaborating on a meeting
Would you like to have several people control Slido as admins via our Microsoft Teams integration? If so, make sure you’ve added them as collaborators to the respective Slido event using our Share access feature.
Each user with admin access to a Slido event will also have admin access within the integration. This works both before the Teams meeting (in the tab) and during the Teams meeting (in the sidebar).
Run your meeting
If you’ve added Slido to your Teams meeting, the audience can see it on the right-hand side after clicking on the Slido button. The admin interface is visible only to you.
During the meeting, Slido is visible both to you and the participants directly in the window during your call.
You can manage the event and the participants can interact with it without the need to switch the windows or apps.
This is how the integration works for your participants:

Voting in your Teams meeting
There’s now a Slido pop-up for participants to facilitate voting in your Teams meeting.

When a poll is launched, a small pop-up window is opened for everyone to vote. When the poll is finished or deactivated, the pop-up disappears for you to continue with your meeting.
Share Slido present mode to stage in Teams

You can now use the ‘share to stage’ button in Teams to show Slido in present mode at the center of the meeting.
You can do this by selecting the arrow icon from the right hand side of the meeting to share instantly.
Use Slido outside of the meeting
If you want to collect questions in advance or after the meeting is over, you can add Slido to your Microsoft Teams channel.
Create or select an event and other channel members can ask and upvote questions directly there, as shown below:

To access the Slido poll results from the meeting or run a feedback survey, you can open Slido from the meeting invite on the Teams calendar:
1. Open the meeting invite
2. Select Slido from the apps list

Remove Slido from Microsoft Teams
To remove Slido from your Microsoft Teams meeting, click on the three-dot menu from the sidebar and choose Remove.

Similarly, to remove Slido from your Teams channel, right click on the Slido icon in the top menu bar and choose Remove.
