Quiz source

Quiz Link

Provide a link to where your JSON Quiz file is located. This could be within Rapidweaver Resources or a location on your web server. (See next section for details about creating your Quiz file)

Note: Quizzer stack links to a JSON quiz file (see Quiz Template section) that contains all of your questions and answers. This is an easy way to create, update and maintain your quizzes.
