What are LinkedIn Poll Posts?

| Setting | Supported Options |

| Answer options | 2–4 options, up to 30 characters each |

How to Create a LinkedIn Poll
Follow these steps to create and publish a LinkedIn poll from Social Planner.
- Navigate to Marketing → Social Planner.
- Create a new post and select your connected LinkedIn account.
- Click Add Poll in the post composer.
- Enter your poll question, add 2–4 answer options, and select a poll duration of 1, 3, 7, or 14 days.
- Preview your poll, then publish immediately, schedule it, or add it to a queue.
Important: LinkedIn polls cannot be combined with images, videos, PDFs, or other media attachments. When creating posts for multiple platforms, you can still add media to non-LinkedIn platform versions. If media is attached to the LinkedIn version, the poll will not be published.
