What is Knowledge quiz?
Knowledge quiz is Formit’s scored assessment mode. Mark correct answers, configure scoring, and show results with scores. It is built for training checks, certifications, and hiring screens. Publishing knowledge quizzes is plan-gated on Free - use a paid plan when you need this mode live.

- Add questions and mark the correct options for scored items.

Key capabilities

Use cases

Example workflow
An L&D team builds a Knowledge quiz for a security awareness module. Multiple Choice and True/False items each have a marked correct answer. After completing the quiz, respondents see their score. The team publishes on a paid plan, shares the form via an org subdomain link, and exports Results for audit records when CSV export is allowed.
Tips and best practices
- Write unambiguous correct answers - ambiguous keys frustrate respondents and muddy scores.
- Keep Match quiz for recommenders; reserve Knowledge quiz for true right/wrong assessment.
- Confirm your plan supports knowledge quiz publishing before scheduling a live launch.
Limitations and plan notes
- Publishing knowledge quizzes is plan-gated on Free; upgrade to a paid plan to go live.
- Knowledge quiz is for scored correct answers - not personality-style ending matching.
- CSV export and other workspace features may be plan-gated separately in the product UI.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I publish a Knowledge quiz on Free?
- No. Knowledge quiz publishing is plan-gated on Free. Upgrade to a paid plan to publish scored assessments. Match quiz publishing remains available on Free.
- How does scoring work?
- You mark correct answers on quiz questions and configure scoring in Knowledge quiz mode. Results reflect those scores after respondents complete the form.
- Should I use Knowledge quiz for a product recommender?
- Usually no. Recommenders and personality outcomes fit Match quiz (ending-based matching). Use Knowledge quiz when answers are objectively correct or incorrect.
- Does Knowledge quiz support logic?
- Yes. You can combine Knowledge quiz mode with conditional logic where your assessment path needs show/hide or jumps, subject to the builder’s cycle-safe rules.
