Uploading a file with Quiz questions in application control panel? iOS and Android

Hi, Would it be possible to add a feature to application control panel so one can upload a file with a set of quiz questions? The BT quiz editor is pretty good but entering a few hundreds of questions manually can be quite painful... Let's say I have the questions in a database or in a file in a format which I can easily convert to the JSON format the BT quiz uses. That would also make transition from 1.4 to 1.5 easier for people. Cheers, Piotr

Poitr, You can upload the database to your host and call to it with the Advanced Quiz Properties >> Screen Data URL field.

I was not clear if you wanted to just connect to a database or upload one to BT. I would suspect it would not be prudent to allow everyone to upload numerous files and tax the storage capacity on the server of a free service. Also gives me more control if I want to edit and change you files without having to go through BT.
