Exporting Question
I have about 30 courses and need to get the questions out of them and into one document for review and updating. The questions are all in question banks (one question bank for each course).
How can I export the questions from the banks into one doc? I don't mind exporting them into separate docs then combining them all into one doc later but copying and pasting one question at a time is a little cumbersome.
Thanks.

This is a necessity! Can we please get this feature added? We can export everything else why not the question banks without having to create a whole new course to download them to a word document.
Articulate it looks like people have been asking for this for over 10 years... PLEASE can we get this.

That might work. I'll try that when I have some time. For all the courses I have to deal with, it will take some time to do that but it would still be better than copying and pasting from each course... Thanks.
It would be nice if exporting questions to a spreadsheet or doc would be included in future enhancements...

Hi Andrea,
Thanks for reaching out! As mentioned above, there still isn't an option to export back to Excel, but you could look at the options for exporting for translation - and use that Word document to convert it into Excel or a table.

Hello Lemarchand Nicolas!
This feature isn't on our current roadmap as we are prioritizing other features. Since this is a beneficial feature for you and is still being considered, I'd recommend sharing your support in a feature request so we can update you directly if this feature makes it on our roadmap.

Wow, this feature was requested over 9 years ago, and it still hasn't made it to your roadmap??

I was just looking for help with exporting question bank questions. I can't believe this isn't a function yet.

Hey Michael!
Have you explored whether the Publish for Word option would work for you?
- MichaelJerniganCommunity Member
Yes, I tried that. I published a couple of the courses to Word but it took so long to remove the non-question content and reformat the questions so they would be useful, it's not very efficient to do that with all of the courses I have be able to pull the questions out of. It would take about the same amount of time if I copied and pasted the questions/answers into a separate Word doc.
It's a little hard for me to believe that a tool like Storyline would not have some way to export questions from a question bank so they can be more easily maintained across courses and also be used for a final exam that contains questons from all the courses...

Hi Michael,
How about importing just your questions into a new Storyline file, and then publishing that new project to Word? Would that be a timesaver?
