How to create a Survey in Microsoft Teams with multiple questions?

In Microsoft Teams, it’s simple to utilize Microsoft Forms to make a poll during a meeting or before it. But as we all know, polls typically only include one question. And if you need to design a poll that includes multiple questions, in such case, it could be better to think of it as a survey rather than a poll.

In Microsoft Teams, you have many apps that would help you to create a Survey with multiple questions like Polly.
