Importing Questions

I'm trying to import questions into the quizmaker from an excel file, but keep getting an error message.  Is there a trick do importing an excel file?

  • Hi Toni - What's the error message? I'm assuming you are utilizing the template here in this documentation. If you'd like us to take a look, please feel free to share the file.

  • Hi, Angela.

    Thank you for sharing your spreadsheet!

    A few things that need to be changed for it to work:

    • Questions 1, 2, 5, 6, and 13 are Multiple Response questions. The pipe symbol | is used to add feedback by choice in the spreadsheet. Since Multiple Response questions don't accept feedback by choice, you won't be able to add custom ones in the excel file. 
    • The same applies to True or False questions (3, 4, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15). On questions 3 and 4, you also have more than two answers (they should only be True or False).

    Let me know if you have additional questions!
