Hi  @llincoln1   Where is the question bank currently?  Generally to upload a question bank into Canvas you need to have the QTI file for that question set, then in Canvas you go to Settings>Import Course Content and under content type select QTI Zip file.  When selected you are given the opportunity to add the questions to a new bank or to an existing question bank.

If the questions are coming from a publisher, you may be able to get the QTI file and if you need questions from an assessment in one Canvas course added to the bank of another, you can export the quiz or quizzes into a QTI file then upload them into a bank.  If the questions are currently in something like a Word document you would want to use a program like Respondus 4.0 to convert the Word file into a QTI file then upload this to Canvas or go from the Respondus interface directly into Canvas.

I hope this helps and best wishes!
