Steps

Step 1: Prepare your CSV file

To create a new Kit from a spreadsheet, you’ll need to use a properly formatted CSV file. Gimkit lets you choose your template during the Kit creation process. Download it and add your questions and answers. Whether you’re using MS Excel or Google Sheets, make sure to convert it to a CSV file.

Adding questions and answers to the Gimkit-provided template takes time. The task can be a challenge when you need to repeat it for multiple Kits. Besides, if you have your existing assessments in regular Excel or Doc files, your workload will definitely be intense.

There is one more challenge. Since Gimkit is MCQ-focused, you’ll need to customize your assessment if it contains other question types, e.g., fill-in-the-blank.

No worries. You can solve it easily and save time.

If you create your questions with Monsha’s Quiz Questions Generator or Reading Comprehension Question Generator, you don’t have to put extra effort into formatting templates or spreadsheets. You’ll get instant access to a downloadable CSV file that works with Gimkit!

The best part? This properly formatted export feature is also available to you if you use other platforms like Kahoot!, Quizizz, or Blooket.

Step 2: Start the import process

Navigate back to your Kit Creator page on Gimkit. Clicking on the Upload File button will display the upload window.
