How Quizlet Import Work?

Blooket reads Quizlet’s export format—a tab-separated text file where tabs separate terms and definitions, and each card is on its own line. Blooket takes this text and converts it into a multiple-choice question set, using the terms and definitions as the question/answer pairs and auto-generating likely distractors from other terms in the set.

The import creates Multiple Choice questions by default. After importing, you can manually change individual questions to Typing Answer if needed.

Before you start, you need:

• A Blooket teacher account (logged in)
• A Quizlet account (free or paid)
• Access to the Quizlet set you want to import (either yours or a public one you’ve copied)

Question Sets Tutorial → How to Create a Blooket Question Set

Step 1: Start a New Set in Blooket

• From your Blooket dashboard, click the Create button

• Add a title and description for your new set

• From the creation method options, select Quizlet Import
• Click Create Your Set

You can also import into an existing set by opening any set in edit mode and selecting the Quizlet Import option from the Set Edit page.

Step 2: Select Your Quizlet Set

Blooket will prompt you to find the Quizlet set you want to import. You have two options:

• Your Quizlet — Opens a new tab and logs you into your Quizlet account so you can select from your own sets.
• Search Quizlet — Lets you search the Quizlet public library directly from within Blooket.

Select one of these options. If not already logged into Quizlet, do so when prompted. Find and click on the set you want to import. When you’ve found it, click Next Step in the original Blooket tab.

Step 3: Export from Quizlet

Switch to your Quizlet tab with the set you selected. Follow these steps to export it:

1. Click the three-dot menu (⋯) to the right of the set owner’s name
2. Select Export
3. In the Export menu, verify the settings:
   • Between term and definition: Tab
   • Between rows: New line. These are the default settings. Do not change them.
4. Click Copy text (this copies the formatted set to your clipboard)

If you don’t see an Export option: The set may require Quizlet Plus features to export. Your options are:

1. Select Save and edit from the three-dot menu to copy the set to your own Quizlet account (which you can then export)
2. If Save and edit is also unavailable, the set uses Quizlet Plus features that require a Quizlet Plus subscription to copy

Step 4: Paste into Blooket and Configure

• Switch back to the Blooket tab.
• Paste the copied text into the text field provided.

Once pasted, Blooket displays a preview. You’ll see:

1. Left column — Will become the answer choices shown to students.
2. Right column — Will become the question prompts.

Check whether this orientation makes sense for your content. In most vocabulary sets, Quizlet terms are on the left and definitions on the right — which means in Blooket, definitions become the questions and terms become the correct answers. This is usually the wrong way around.

If you need to flip the orientation, check the Flip questions and answers option. This swaps which column becomes the question and which becomes the answer — often the correct choice when the Quizlet set uses term-on-left, definition-on-right formatting and you want students to see the definition and type or choose the term.

Step 5: Add Questions and Save

Click Add Questions. Blooket processes the text and creates a question for each row. Each question gets the correct answer from your Quizlet set, plus automatically generated distractors pulled from other terms in the set. Review the preview and click Save Set when ready.

Post-Import Cleanup (Important)

Always review imported questions before using the set with students. Common issues to fix:

1. Distractors need review. Blooket automatically generates incorrect answers from other terms in the set. Sometimes, these are too similar to the correct answer, too obviously wrong, or grammatically inconsistent. Review and manually edit distractors that would confuse or mislead students.
2. Question phrasing may be incomplete. Quizlet definitions often stand alone as answers but can be embarrassing as question prompts (“The organelle responsible for producing energy” is a fine answer, but a confusing question). Edit question text to be a proper question: “Which organelle is responsible for producing energy?”
3. Typing Answer conversion. If you want students to type responses rather than select, open individual questions and change the type from Multiple Choice to Typing Answer. Set your matching preference (Contains or Is Exactly) for each.
4. Images. Quizlet images import was supported, but not in all cases. Check image questions after import and re-add images that didn’t transfer.
