Create Poll

Post a Discord poll: a question with up to 10 answers people vote on.

Channel (blank = current) — channel

Choose the channel this block targets or filters. Use its Discord ID or a supported channel variable. Check channel overrides for the bot.

Input: Text.

Default: ``.

Question (max 300) — question

The poll question. Make it specific enough that each answer is unambiguous.

Input: Text with variable suggestions.

Default: What should we do next?.

Answers (one per line, max 10, 55 characters each) — answers

Enter the poll choices in the format shown. Make each choice understandable without repeating the full question.

Input: Multiline text.

Default: `Option A
Option B`.

Open for (hours, 1-768) — hours

Poll lifetime in hours. Confirm the value rather than entering seconds or a free-form duration.

Input: Number.

Default: 24.

Allow several answers — multiselect

Allow members to select more than one poll answer. Disable when exactly one preference is intended.

Input: On/off switch.

Default: false.

Store as — storeAs

Choose a short result prefix such as result. Later blocks must use this same prefix and run after this block. It is not a Discord channel or a persistent table.

Input: Text.

Default: poll.

Read the result after this block, using its configured prefix and the fields supported by the selected operation. Do not assume every response has a text or id field.

Invoke the correct trigger with simple inputs and verify the expected effect. Confirm variables exist on this path. A preview alone does not verify Discord delivery.

Save, validate and publish. Perform one real test and read the first relevant log error. [Testing](/docs/flow-testing) · [Variables](/docs/flow-variables) · [Permissions](/docs/flow-permissions).
