Publish LinkedIn polls from Notion

LinkedIn polls are a great way to engage your audience and collect valuable insights. With Scheduled, you can create and schedule your polls directly from Notion.

Prerequisites to publish polls

Before you start, make sure that:

• Your LinkedIn account is connected to Scheduled
• Your Notion database is set up with Scheduled
• You have added the required properties for polls

Setting up properties in Notion

To create polls, add these properties to your database:

→ sc_poll_question (type: Text)

The question for your poll (maximum 140 characters)

→ sc_poll_options (type: Multi-select)

The answer options for your poll (maximum 30 characters each)

→ sc_poll_duration (type: Select)

Poll duration with these required options: 1D, 3D, 7D, 14D

Steps to create your poll

Step 1: Write your question

In the sc_poll_question property, enter your question, keeping within the 140-character limit.

Step 2: Add your answer options

In the sc_poll_options (multi-select) property, create and select between 2 and 4 answer options. Each option must stay within the 30-character limit.

Step 3: Set the duration

Select your poll duration in sc_poll_duration:

• 1D: 1 day
• 3D: 3 days
• 7D: 1 week
• 14D: 2 weeks

For your information, this property is not required. By default, the poll duration will be 14 days if you leave it empty.

Step 4: Schedule the post

Set the publication date and time just like you would for a regular post.

Step 5: Choose the connection

Select where you want to publish your post (a LinkedIn Page or a LinkedIn profile).

Step 6: The post content

To complete your poll, the text of your post is the content in the body of your Notion card.

Once published, your poll will appear on LinkedIn like this:
