@EP99 , what I explained is that you can use Webex Meetings to create the poll (as for most users it's just easier and faster to start a Webex Meeting than to schedule & start a Webex Event)
Once you have created your poll and saved it as an .atp file you can easily load and use it during your Webex Event. This is done by going to the Polling-panel in your Webex Event and click on "Open" (exactly the same process as in Webex Meetings). If you don't see the Polling-panel in your event, go to the menu-bar and select "File > Open Poll Questions..."
From there you can load the .atp file you created before the event and you are ready to conduct the poll.
Hope this clarifies what I explained in my previous message.
@EP99 , yes you can conduct a poll during a live event, but this would also mean that you have to create the poll (i.e. all the questions with the different answers) during the event.
I would recommend you to create the poll upfront so that you just have to load and run the poll during the event.
You can easily do this by just starting a Webex Meetings with no other participants (no need to setup a complete Webex Event for that, you can just use Webex Meetings). Once you started your meeting, you go to the Polling-panel and you start creating your poll by adding a first question:
And then you add the possible answers to your question (you can also select the type of answer: single answer, multiple answers or free text):
Once you have added all you questions & answers to the poll, you can also specify the timer for this specific poll (default value will be five minutes) and then save your poll by clicking the "Save-button":
The day of the event you just have to load the poll by clicking on the "Open"-icon and selecting the *.atp file that you saved previously. After that, you only have to click on "Open Poll" whenever you want to conduct the poll.
Hope this helps,
Goswin
