Before you can add Slido to your meeting, please first:
- Schedule the meeting (either via the Microsoft Teams calendar or Outlook)
- Invite at least one participant to the meeting if it’s scheduled via calendar (not needed with Outlook)
Afterwards, open the meeting either by:
- Clicking Edit (if the meeting’s been scheduled via the calendar)
- OR by opening the meeting in Teams Calendar to add Slido app (if the meeting’s been scheduled via Outlook)
You can then add Slido to your meeting:
Click the + button in the menu bar and choose Slido
Log in with your Slido account or sign up
Choose whether you wish to create a new Slido event or use an already existing one
Please note that you have to add Slido individually to each meeting where you want to use it.
Prepare your meeting
Afterwards, you can set up your polls and Q&A session as needed, the same way as if you were in Slido admin.
Run your meeting
If you’ve added Slido to your Teams meeting, the audience will automatically see it right next to the video call. The admin interface is visible only to you.
During the meeting, Slido is visible both to you and the participants directly in the window during your call.
You can manage the event and the participants can interact with it without the need to switch the windows or apps.
This is how the integration works for your participants:
Alternative solution: Collect questions outside of a meeting
If you want to collect questions outside of a meeting, you can add Slido to your Teams channel.
Create or select an event and other channel members can ask and upvote questions directly there, as shown below:
