  • Paste a list of questions from a spreadsheet

Both options are accessible from within any round.

  2. Click the QuizWitz Library tab
  3. Use filters like language, collection, type, category, or tags
  4. Select one or more entries
  5. Click Add X items to insert the selected content into your quiz
