Clarification about the migration of question banks to new quiz

Just to clarify that, still today, the only way to migrate a question bank so that the questions can be used in New quizzes is:

1) Adding all the questions in the question bank to a Classic quiz.

2) Downloading or importing the Classic quiz as a zip file.

3) Importing the zip file to a New quiz.

Many thanks for your clarifying this

You also have the option to import the classic quiz qti file into a new or existing item bank.

@m_garcia1 You might consider a different approach if you have a lot of question banks to move in one course.

Create a Classic Quiz. Give it a short, meaningful title. The title appears at the beginning of the NQ Item Bank names. Course code, e.g. PHIL100, might work well.
On the questions tab, click the Find Questions button.
Select a CQ Question Bank, click Select All (if more than 50 questions, load them all before selecting), then choose Create Bank from the Dropdown Menu. Enter a name (this name will be prepended with the quiz title after migration, e.g. a "Socrates" question group becomes NQ Item Bank "PHIL100 - Socrates"). Confirm. Wait for the questions to fill the question group.
Repeat as necessary until the quiz contains a question group for each question bank you want to migrate..
Save.
Migrate this quiz by choosing "Migrate" from its triple-dot options menu in the Quizzes list.
Once the process finishes, open the New Quiz version's Build page. Click Item Banks and see your NQ Item Bank questions.
Delete unneeded intermediary quizzes.

Could "Timeline Visualization" be the Key to Improving the Student Calendar?
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
Better Submit Button UI to prevent accidental Submits Message
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
