Welcome to the Canvas Community!!!

You can import the quiz or the question bank from the previous course using the course import tool:

How do I copy content from another Canvas course using the Course Import tool?‌

You can also look here https://community.canvaslms.com/message/126662-copying-quiz-questions for additional information on copying quizzes and question banks.

My deepest sympathies.  I just went through the whole (complicated and cumbersome) process with a Canvas representative on "Live Chat" - it involves exporting a quiz, then importing it as a duplicate quiz "zip.file" to your computer that now contains the quiz questions in a newly created Test Bank. Then you need to import it to Canvas.  If I were you, I  would get on the live chat Help Line and be "talked" through it step-by-step. There is no talking, however - it's a lot of back and forth typing.  It took me about  1.5  - 2 hours.  Make sure you save your "Live Chat" conversation as a text.file so you won't have to go through the whole process all over again when you forget how you did it the first time !
