I have created quizzes using MS Forms, but I don't know how to load them into the "Quizzes" tab in Canvas.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @tami_shilling I haven't used MS Forms for building quizzes but looked to see if there was a way for exporting from Forms to a QTI but didn't find one. Essentially, the quiz needs to be in the QTI format to import into Canvas, or be exported in some course export package like from another LMS. There has been a number of questions about moving questions from MS, normally Word to Canvas (see upload question bank and Creating an Exam/Quiz). The only viable solution I have head is to go from Word to a QTI (or perhaps Canvas directly) with Respondus 4.0. My guess is that there isn't a way to go from Forms to Canvas without passing through Respondus 4.0 first.
I hope this helps!

Thank you, Eric, for the information.
I had the same problem and found this tool called GETMARKED. It can import my MS form quiz directly from my MS form sharing link. And i can later export it as a QTI file to upload into Canvas to create a question bank. Only minor issue is that the answers are not imported. Also, it requires an institutional license to use (but there's free trial!).
