Exam bank

How do export or transfer questions from various quizzes into an exam bank? I know how to edit each one individually to add to bank, but is there a way to copy all the questions from a quiz into a bank?

Welcome @jane_wines to the Community!

There is a Canvas Guides document with the steps for this: 

How do I move multiple questions from one question bank to another? 

Note that the steps on this page do not indicate that a new question bank can be created during the movement process:

Move questions into a new question bank

Just in case they are helpful, here are a couple of Canvas Guides documents with information on how to use questions in question banks in new quizzes:

• How do I create a quiz by finding questions in a question bank?
• How do I create a quiz with a question group linked to a question bank?

Thank you so much for your reply. The trouble I am having is that the questions I want to move are in a 'quiz', not a 'bank'. Going through the steps you show doesn't work for me. The quizzes don't show up in the 'manage question banks' tab, and when I open up the quizzes there is no option to move the questions to a bank. I have gone about this the wrong way - I didn't realise I needed to write the quizzes within a bank - I have just written several different quizzes and now want to collate all the questions in one bank. Or maybe I am missing something? Not a techy mind here I am afraid!

Thanks for your response. There should be a question bank called "Unfiled questions" that has copies of all the questions that are in the quizzes. However. I've had the experience where that does not occur. In that case I have created my own question banks by exporting the quiz and then re-importing it. I made a silent video showing the steps:
