How to Upload Assessment Questions From a Spreadsheet in Minutes

Please Share

Uploading assessment questions from a spreadsheet is important because generally that’s how you start creating your assessments.

You draft questions, refine answer options, assign points or personality bands, and only then think about getting everything into the system.

Typing each question one by one is time-consuming. That’s why Evalinator has a feature to upload them all at once!

Whether its for a lead generation quiz or an onboarding assessment, this way you can move faster without sacrificing accuracy.

Bulk upload is designed for speed and confidence.

You can:

  • Import dozens of questions at once

  • Keep wording and options consistent

  • Get your assessment live much faster

If your questions already live in a spreadsheet, bulk upload is an efficient way to get started.

Below is a simple guide to uploading your questions in bulk.

Step 1: Define your bands and dimensions first

Before uploading questions, make sure your bands (scoring or personality) and dimensions/ question categories are already defined.

These are essential because:

  • Answer options for scored assessments need to map to points

  • For type or personality assessments, answer choice need to map to valid bands
  • Dimensions or question categories determine how results are grouped and interpreted

Once these are set, the system knows exactly how to interpret your uploaded data.

Step 2: Navigate to Questions and download your personalized template

Go to your Questions section and click Upload.

Step 3: Copy, paste, and validate your questions

Paste your questions directly from your spreadsheet — including the header row.

After pasting, you’ll see a confirmation screen where you can:

  • Review all imported questions

  • Check options, points, and bands

  • Fix issues before anything is saved

confirm imported questions

If something doesn’t match (for example, an invalid band name), the system will show warnings at the top so you can correct them before finishing the upload.

Once everything looks right, confirm and complete the upload.

That’s it

Your questions are now imported and ready to use.

Bulk upload of assessment questions from a spreadsheet removes friction from assessment creation, so you can focus on refining insights instead of managing data entry.
