Delete or reset multiple polls

Hey team - can I reset or delete more than one poll at a time in the new Slido interface? Sometimes I want to delete multiple polls or reset a few of the interactions. I used to do this with ease in the old Slido, but can’t find where to do it in the new interface. Am I missing something? Or is that completely gone? Can I do any bulk actions with polls?

 We’ve redesigned how you create and manage Slido as a host, with a complete new look. The new interface is rolling out gradually and so you might notice a few changes. But don’t worry! With a focus on efficiency and ease of use, Slido is now more intuitive than ever.You can watch the announcement with more info here 👇 In this article:Why the change? How do I know if I’m using new Slido? Are there Help Center resources for both interfaces? Can I switch back to old Slido?  Why the change? We wanted to simplify the process of creating Slidos, with a focus on eliminating friction points for our users. This meant that changes in design were needed to make it easier for users to locate and use more features. Alongside the interface changes, all the technology on the backend has been upgraded too which should streamline any future improvements. Slido’s polling and Q&A are still front and center – they’re simply more efficient. Our research shows new users can create Slidos 30% faster in
