Overview
The Exam migration tool allows you to transfer your old Exam question widgets to the new Exam format. When you use the migration tool, Howspace automatically creates a new Exam widget that includes all the content from the old one. Participant inputs, questions, and answer options are all moved to the new version, ensuring a seamless transition without data loss.
What the Migration Does
The migration tool automatically:
Transfers all questions, answer options, and answer feedback to the new Exam widget
Moves all participant answers and results to the new exam
Adds the new Exam widget in place of the old one
Moves the old Exam question widgets to the page trash can
New exam will automatically use the “Show questions one by one” setting if the old exam was split into Path mode
In this case, the new Exam widget will be on the first step of the path. If there's no other content on the path, consider deleting the rest
Important Notes
If the old exam used custom points, all questions in the new version are automatically set to 1 point each.
All past participant answers remain visible in the new version after migration.
