## &#x20;Ending an existing Poll <a href="#end-a-poll" id="end-a-poll"></a>

Sometimes, you no longer want to collect more responses. In this case, you'll need to run the [`/poll end`](/commands/miscellaneous/poll-end.md) command, supplying the message ID of the poll, to end it. You can find out how to get a message-id [**here**](https://www.followchain.org/copy-message-id-discord/#1).
