If you feel confident, I recommend using a set of json data in a .txt file stored in the docs folder of your BT control panel. You then point to the .txt file in the Quiz screen plugin where it says "Screen Data URL". Here is a thread where I was helped: https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=882E7283BB428B9C6547948

No, the questions will download to your device automatically. Once there, they stay there. If you add more questions at a later date, then simply point to a new .txt file at a new URL and the app will update. I also recommend using a CSV spreadsheet (in Excel) as discussed in the above thread. You can use tools (e.g. http://www.convertcsv.com/json-to-csv.htm ) to convert from JSON to CSV (which can be used in Excel) and tools to convert CSV to JSON (e.g. http://shancarter.github.io/mr-data-converter/ ). Using a CSV file makes it really easy to add questions.
