How to use Automation with a Poll
Updated over a week ago

Introduction

Automation is an exciting feature that makes it possible to trigger Interactivity without the visitor having to select a clickable area on the page. It can also be used to hide the results of a Poll module, which may be your preference instead of than showing the percentage of each Poll option.

Example

Ryan has created a Social Media Policy that includes a feedback poll on the final page. As the feedback is sensitive, he would like to keep the results confidential - to do this, he can use Automation to display a More Information pop-up box instead of the Poll results.

How to set up Automation with a Poll

  • Navigate to a Document.

  • Select ‘Interactivity’ for the Version of the Document that you want to work on.

Two modules are required for this type of Automation.

  • Module 1 - The Poll module used by your visitors to cast their vote.

  • Module 2 - A More Information pop-up box, which will be set to open once a vote has been cast - ensure it is positioned off-page.

  • Click on the first answer of the Poll module.

  • Select the wand icon from the fly-out menu.

  • Select the ‘Add Automation’ button.

  • A ‘Settings’ box will then display ready to set up the Automation.
