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.

I agree, that would make a great feature request. Thanks for the feedback, and good luck with the project!

I finally figured out a way to move questions from question banks in multiple stories into one story file. I created a new project and created one scene with a question back, then created another empty scene with just one blank slide.
I then copied the the questions from each story into the empty scene, then imported then into the question bank one set of questions (questions from one story) at a time. I also copied in the empty slide to act as a separator between the sets of questions from the different trainings.
It took a while but copying the questions into the final exam story, importing them into the question bank for the final, and deleting them from the "empty" scene appears to have worked fine...

Thanks guys, I wanted to review questions, sequence etc. and just wanted a list of questions. This helped me.
Is there any update with the feature request on this?
Thanks
Hi Suparna!
This feature isn't something that's on our roadmap at the moment, but if it gets added to Storyline in the future, we'll let you know!
In the meantime, you can keep track of all the new and exciting features we're adding right here. 🌟

Here is a quick and dirty solution that may work for you: When have reviewers who only want to see questions, I do the following. Might work for you in quickly collating questions from 30 trainings, though it would be a great feature if one could just export and import questions an an Excel file.
- Export as Word document
- View in outline view, looking only at level 1 and 2
- If preceded by Q: or a number, the questions are easy to see in this view, and you can quickly erase all entries that are not questions
Hope that is somewhat helpful!

Is it possible to export question banks in excel in the same format as the excel template to import them?

Having the functionality to export Storyline 360 questions into either csv or excel format would greatly improve our current business practices and training initiatives.
Currently, our organization uses SharePoint 365 to manage and classify varying details regarding our questions and surveys, using managed metadata.
Our goal is to have several question pools in SharePoint that we can easily generate into an excel format based on metadata requests and requirements, to upload into Storyline 360.
Not having a function in Storyline to export to csv/excel, proves to be very tedious, cumbersome, and costly; as we can only export to word for review.

Agreed as well - I was just googling a way to do this. This would be a great feature to add.

Yes, this is a really important feature. I have a colleague that needs to review our question banks and having them in an Excel file would be great.

I agree that this is necessary and valuable.
