Why Export or Import Quiz Data?
Data exporting for quiz purposes can signify different things to various individuals and organizations. In a nutshell, we think the justifications for exporting quiz results include:
Simplify Tasks
Simplify the time-consuming process of producing comparable quizzes on several websites. Simply install the addon, complete the export and import process, and you will have quizzes and surveys on many websites in a matter of seconds.
To maintain an archive
The quizzes and surveys we create online frequently have limited availability or a limited relevance period. The quiz results data that we collect and use in these situations must be kept as a permanent record or at the very least documented for future use. Researchers and surveyors are renowned for using exporting quiz and survey data. The information subsequently becomes a permanent record.
To protect collected data
Another important reason to export your quiz scores and other quiz information is to protect the quiz data. This aids in organizing the collected data and protecting it from corruption and online phishing. Securing your gathered quiz data is crucial, especially in the present, when zero-party data is everything.
What is Export and Import Addon?
