Exporting Questions

Skip to main content

EAS can export questions from a quiz Question Bank in Moodle GIFT format.

Go to EAS > Quizzes > Questions. Click Export Questions (GIFT).

EAS generates a GIFT representation of the questions in the selected quiz.

Exporting questions is useful for:

  • Keeping a backup of questions
  • Moving questions to another system that supports GIFT
  • Editing or preparing questions outside EAS
  • Reusing question material
  • Creating an archive of a Question Bank

The exported file contains the information required to represent the supported questions in GIFT format.

When questions are later imported into EAS, they become questions in the selected quiz’s Question Bank. Because a Question Bank belongs to a specific quiz, exporting questions does not move or remove the original questions. The original quiz remains unchanged.
