Fill in the blank question

Aug 25, 2021

Is there a question type where learners can copy and paste a URL into an answer box? I used the fill in the blank but unfortunately it doesn't let me do it - typed answers only! Thanks

Hi, Angies.

Thank you for reaching out!

When you tested your fill-in-the-blank question, was it during Preview or after publishing? If published, which format did you use?

I was able to copy/paste (using Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V) a URL in a fill-in-the-blank question both in preview and when published to Review 360. The main issue with that type of question is that it expects a comparison with an acceptable answer. If you just need a field for students to paste a URL that will not be graded, I recommend using a short answer or essay survey question.
