 AI Overview

To import questions into a Google Forms quiz, you can use the built-in "Import questions" feature to pull them from an existing Google Form, or use Google Docs/Sheets with an add-on if your questions are in a document.
Here are the step-by-step methods to get your questions into your quiz.
Method 1: Import from an Existing Google Form
If you already have the questions in another Google Form, you can pull them directly into your new quiz.
  1. Open your quiz in Google Forms.
  2. Click the Import questions icon (a page with an arrow) in the vertical toolbar on the right side.
  3. Select the Form that contains the questions you want to use, then click Select.
  4. In the right-hand panel, check the boxes next to the specific questions you want to import (or choose Select all).
  5. Click Import questions.
Method 2: Import from Google Docs or Google Sheets
Google Forms does not have a native "upload file" button for Word docs or spreadsheets. To bulk-import questions from text, you need to use an official Google Workspace add-on.
Step 1: Install a Form Builder Add-on
  1. Open your Google Form.
  2. Click the More icon (three vertical dots) in the top-right corner.
  3. Select Get add-ons.
  4. Search for a popular, highly-rated tool like "Form Builder Plus" or "Form Approvals / Form Builder".
  5. Click Install and grant the necessary permissions.
Step 2: Run the Add-on to Import
  1. Click the Add-ons icon (puzzle piece) at the top of your Google Form.
  2. Choose your installed Form Builder app and click Start.
  3. Select your source file (Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides).
  4. Follow the add-on's sidebar prompts to map your questions and answer choices.
  5. Click Import to load them instantly into your quiz.
Method 3: Convert a Google Doc directly into a Quiz
If your quiz is currently typed out in a standard Google Doc, you can launch the process from the document side.
  1. Open your Google Doc.
  2. Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get add-ons.
  3. Search for and install "Doc to Form".
  4. Once installed, go back to Extensions > Doc to Form > Create Form.
  5. Highlight the text in your document, click Use Selected Text in the sidebar, and specify the question type (e.g., Multiple Choice).
  6. Click Create Form at the bottom to generate your new quiz.
What format are your questions currently saved in (e.g., a Word document, a spreadsheet, or a PDF)? I can give you the exact template layout you need to make the import go smoothly.
