Creating quizzes

Admins, account managers, workspace managers, and leads can create quizzes. All quizzes
are multiple choice.
Quizzes are specific to workspaces. Any team member in the workspace can take the quiz, but
users can take each quiz only once. They can’t take the same quiz again in another
workspace. A quiz made available to “all workspaces” isn’t available to workspaces created
after the quiz is published.
Quiz questions can include text and images, but answers are text only. A question can have
more than one correct answer, in which case the participant must select all of them to be
marked correct.
After a quiz is published, it can’t be modified. However, it can be deleted. Admins and
account managers can delete any published quiz. Workspace managers and leads can delete a
published quiz only if they created it.
