Kajabi quiz builder for Kajabi quizzes written from your lesson videos

How to create a quiz in Kajabi

From the Dashboard, open Products, then Courses, and open the course. Click Add content next to the module where the quiz belongs and choose Quiz. Then click Add question, type the question, pick the type, choose whether it is graded, add the options, click the circle next to the correct one, add an explanation if you want one and click Save. Repeat for every question.

Settings hold the rest. Under Grading, turn on Set a passing grade and enter the percentage. Two optional boxes sit under it: one emails the student a link to their results, the other stops them from marking the quiz complete until they pass. Under Notifications you can send a completion email to the student and one to your team. Set the status to Published when it is ready.

The slow step is the one in the middle, and it does not get faster with practice. Writing a good distractor takes as long on question 18 as it did on question 2. That is the step VidQuiz takes off your plate.

Can you import questions into a Kajabi quiz?

Not from a file. The only import Kajabi documents for course quizzes is Import from another course, which copies an existing Kajabi quiz into a module of the same or a different course. There is no CSV, spreadsheet or question bank upload, so questions written anywhere outside Kajabi go in through Add question.

That changes what a good outside tool has to do. With a platform that imports CSV, any spreadsheet will do. With Kajabi, the tool has to hand you each question already finished and in the order the builder asks for it, because you will be pasting field by field. A rough draft that still needs a rewrite saves you very little.

Once a quiz exists in Kajabi, the import does help: build the quiz once in a template course and import it into every cohort or bundle that needs it, instead of rebuilding it.

Kajabi quiz vs assessment for a paid course

Use a quiz. Kajabi describes quizzes as the tool for testing what students learned inside a course and Assessments as a marketing tool for your website and landing pages. Quizzes also add manual grading for short answer and file upload questions and written feedback on results, which Assessments do not offer.

Assessments still earn their place before the sale. A short knowledge check on a landing page that tags each visitor by answer, then routes them to the right offer, is what they are built for, and each one holds up to 100 questions. Kajabi caps tags at 100 per site, so plan answer tags carefully if you use both tools.

Questions written for one work for the other. If you draft a set from your free lesson video for a landing page assessment, the same items can become the first module check of the paid course.

Can Kajabi grade quizzes automatically?

Yes, for multiple choice and checkbox questions. Mark the correct option when you add the question and Kajabi scores it on submission. Short answer and file upload questions have to be graded by your team from the Results page, where you mark each answer correct or incorrect, leave feedback and click Publish grade.

Only graded questions count toward the score, and the passing grade applies whether a quiz is graded automatically or by hand. If you want a quiz that only checks completion, turn off Set a passing grade and mark every question as non-graded.

For a course with many students, the practical rule is simple: keep the quizzes that gate modules to multiple choice and checkboxes so nobody waits on a human to unlock the next lesson, and save short answers for a final project or coaching tier.

How do I turn a lesson video into a Kajabi quiz?

Paste the public YouTube link of the lesson into VidQuiz, or paste its transcript if the video is hosted in Kajabi, Vimeo or anywhere else. Choose how many questions you want, up to 30, and review what comes back. Every item has the question, the options, the correct answer, an explanation and the timestamp in the video it came from, so checking it against the lesson takes minutes.

Then open the quiz in Kajabi and work down the list. Paste the question, choose Multiple choice, paste the options, click the circle next to the answer VidQuiz marked correct, click Add explanation and paste the explanation. Short answer items go in as Short answer with the model answer kept for whoever grades.

Keep the VidQuiz set after you are done. It is your copy of the quiz outside Kajabi, and it exports as a PDF with the answer key for a workbook, or as a Google Forms or QTI file if you ever teach the same material somewhere else.

Can a Kajabi quiz lock the next module?

Yes. Set a passing grade on the quiz, tick Prevent member from marking quiz as complete without a passing grade, and lock the next module until the quiz is completed. A student who has not passed cannot open the locked content. That is how creators gate a certificate or a bonus module behind a final exam.

A gate is only as fair as its questions. A locked module behind a quiz with one ambiguous item produces support tickets, so the explanation field matters more here than anywhere else. When a student fails, the explanation is what tells them why without an email to you.
