Learn how to add Polly to a Google Chat room.

Add Polly to your room

To add Polly to your room, you can do so in one of two ways:

  1. If you are creating a new room (either for the purpose of using Polly or otherwise), you can just start @mentioning Polly. The Polly bot will pop up and ask you to add Polly to the room.
  2. Or, you can click Invite People in an existing room. Just search for Polly in the list of people, and click Invite.

Once you've added Polly to the room, you should get this following Welcome message that indicates the Polly invitation was successful. Do note that if you want to use Polly in any room, you will first have to invite Polly to every room as needed before being able to create polls in that room.
