Frequently Asked Questions
How long will my poll be available?

Indefinitely, or until you delete it.

Can people without UW NetIDs take my QuickPoll?

Yes, when you set up your QuickPoll, you can select a non-UW NetID security option.

How can I limit participation to a particular group of people?

When you are creating your poll, select class list as your security. This will take you to Group Manager and then you can create or select a list of UW NetIDs. The members of the list do not need to be part of a class.
