Hello - I'm new to Canvas. I created question banks while beginning our transfer to Canvas. However, after creating the question banks I discovered there is a 50 question limit to the Classic Quiz feature. I have activated the New Quiz feature, but is there a way to export specific question banks?
Ex: Lesson 18 Quiz Bank has 74 questions in it, but of course the quiz only has 50 questions. How can I get all the questions transferred to the new Item Bank?

Solved! Go to Solution.
I created old quizzes and then exported them and then imported them into Item Banks and that worked. Thankfully I wasn't too far in.
Id like to know how to do this too.
I have nearly 1000 questions in question banks
I created old quizzes and then exported them and then imported them into Item Banks and that worked. Thankfully I wasn't too far in.
None of the solutions here work for me.
I draw quiz questions randomly from very large 500+ question banks.
It is vital that Canvas figure out a way to import classic quiz question banks to new quiz item banks
This is a big FAIL for Canvas on this issue.
