Poll

The Amity Social SDK encompasses comprehensive support for polls, offering developers an effortless way to incorporate polls into their social applications. Polls enable users to create and participate in a diverse range of topics, sparking targeted engagement and conversations among users.

To integrate poll functionality, developers can utilize the poll features offered by the Amity Social SDK in their applications. Polls can be tailored to meet specific needs, including options for single or multiple-choice polls, setting poll expiration dates, and more. Users can then participate in the poll by choosing their preferred option. At present, the Amity Social SDK only supports the integration of polls within posts, please refer to - , .
