Where to find live Meeting Polls
You can always find a list of all your polls and statuses on the Meeting Poll tab of your manage page.
How to share a Meeting Poll
Open the Meeting Poll tab of your manage page and locate the poll you’d like to share. You can:
1 . Share by text message, email, or social media messaging: Click on the Poll Link button next to the poll you’d like to share. The link is now copied and can be pasted wherever you’d like.
2. Send an email to more invitees with the Magic Live Poll inserted: Click on the poll you’d like to share, and click on + Invite more people… at the top of the list of invitees. You’ll be taken to the compose window where you can send another email to the invitees of your choosing.
How to make changes to an active Meeting Poll
Open the Meeting Poll tab of your manage page and locate the poll you’d like to make changes to. Click Edit. You'll be able to edit event details (Meeting Title, Location, Event Description), adjust the times, and notify recipients of any updates you make.
How to book a meeting from a Meeting Poll
Manual booking: you’ll get an email notification each time you receive a submission to your meeting poll, which includes a link to return to the poll page. When you’ve received enough votes, click through on one of those emails, or locate the poll on your Meeting Poll manage page. Select the best time, and click Book. A Google Calendar event will be created and sent to your invitees.
Automatic booking: If you chose one of the automatic booking settings, once the parameter (see below) is met, Boomerang will choose the optimal time that meets the requirements, and send out Google Calendar invitations on your behalf. You can see which option or add automatic booking to an active meeting poll by editing the meeting poll. It will be under Optional Settings in Step 2: Select Time Options:
How to cancel a scheduled meeting from a Meeting Poll
Locate the meeting either from your Meeting Poll manage page, or in your Google Calendar. If any events were created, they must be canceled directly from Google Calendar, which will give you the opportunity to notify guests if needed.
