Forms created a post in my Channel - How do I delete the Forms post of the poll?

 

I don't want my Channel to get cluttered with old information that we no longer need. How do I archive or delete this post and thread from the Channels feed?

 

TIA!

    I have a similar challenge: cannot edit or delete a poll created in a Teams channel I am the owner of. A poll (with wrong info) has gone out to a lot of people - a hot mess, so need it fixed asap. Any solutions?

    This is absolutely ridiculous, can you please just add a delete button??
    It is unbelievably annoying and causes a lot of confusion.

      if you change your messaging policy in Teams admin, and turn this setting on, then you can delete the forms post on the page.

    This is ridiculous that this has been an issue since 2020 with no resolution?! I need to delete the polls posts on my team or it's going to create a huge mess!
