Import and Export Individual Quizzes

Masteriyo’s Course Builder provides a convenient way to export or import individual quizzes in .json format. This feature allows you to easily reuse, migrate, or back up quizzes across different courses.

Prerequisite:

  • Masteriyo LMS plugin v1.16.0 or above installed and activated.
  • For importing a quiz, prepare the quiz file in a valid .json format.

Step 1: Access the Course Builder

  1. In your WordPress dashboard, go to Masteriyo > Courses
  2. Click on the course that contains the quiz you want to export or the course where you want to import a quiz
  3. Switch to the Builder tab to open the Masteriyo Course Builder interface

Step 2: Export a Quiz

  1. Within the Course Builder, locate the quiz you wish to export
  2. Click on the Export menu
  3. Choose a format:
    • JSON (for import) — downloads the quiz in .json format so it can be re-imported into any course, as described below.
    • PDF with answer key — downloads a printable PDF of the quiz with its questions, choices, correct answers, and passing criteria. This is meant for printing or offline review, not for re-importing.
