Event Polls
Learn about creating events, poll types, finalizing, and tracking attendance.
What are Event Polls?
Event Polls are the core of EventMoot. They let you gather input from your group to make collaborative decisions about when, where, and how to meet.
Each event contains:
- Basic details - Title, description, location, virtual link
- One or more polls - Questions for your attendees to answer
- Attendee responses - Collected votes and preferences
- Final decision - The locked-in time after finalization
Event Lifecycle
Every event goes through distinct stages from creation to completion. Understanding this lifecycle helps you manage events effectively.
