Is there an easy way to take 2 (or more) existing quizzes and combine them into one final quiz? Seems like it should be simple, but I haven't been able to parse it out... Thank you!
You are welcome @DavidPerkinson.
If the questions in the New Quizzes are not in an item bank, the easiest (subjectively speaking) thing to do is to add the questions to an item bank. Please refer to How do I add content to an item bank in New Quizzes? - Instructure Community - 587 for assistance with that.
After the questions have been added to an item bank, go into the New Quiz that you are attempting to build and add questions from the/an item bank. Please refer to How do I add an item from an item bank to a quiz in New Quizzes? - Instructure Community - 589 for assistance with that.
There are other ways but I hope that you found this method helpful.

Hi @DavidPerkinson
Are you using Classic Quizzes or New Quizzes?
If using Classic Quizzes, do the questions already exist in a question bank?
If using New Quizzes, do the questions already exist in an item bank?
Thanks so much for getting back to me! We are new adopters of Canvas, so we're using New Quizzes by default. I have several faculty who have made multiple quizzes in prior courses, who would like to take, say, 3 or 4 of them and combine them into a big final exam. Can you help?
Thanks for your help!
I'm pretty sure this isn't currently possible, so I am asking for a feature request for future. My colleagues would like to request for the ability to hide the SpeedGrader average for markers. There is concern that seeing the average might skew how markers mark assignements, e.g. they might be overly generous or stricter…
Our college would like to disable the Core Canvas tool "Syllabus" by default, so that it automatically doesn't show on Course Navigation menus. Is that possible? A fellow admin asked our CSM about disabling Syllabus by default, but the CSMs may be understandably busy at the moment. Below I rounded up some past comments…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
