Import-Export copies a quiz from one Lantern store to another, with its questions, answers, logic, design and most settings. It's useful when you run several stores, or when you want to reuse a quiz you built in another store.
If you're not looking to copy a quiz to a different store, and instead want to build a quiz from a CSV file or only need to add questions, answers and product matching to an existing quiz, that's supported too. Find out how in Create a quiz and import product matching from a CSV file.
You move a quiz with a one-time export code: you get the code in the store the quiz is in now (the original store) and paste it into the store you want to copy it to (the destination store). You'll need the Lantern app open in both stores.
Step 1: Get an export code in the original store
In the original store, open the Lantern app and go to Quizzes.
Find the quiz you want to copy and click its export icon (Export Quiz).
The Export Quiz window shows the quiz's export code and when it expires. Click Copy code.
The code works once and expires after 24 hours. Each time you open Export Quiz you get a new code, so get one for every store you copy the quiz to. Anyone who has the code can copy this quiz into their store, so only paste it into your own store or give it to the person who manages the destination store.
Step 2: Import the quiz in the destination store
In the destination store, open the Lantern app and go to Quizzes.
Click Import a quiz.
Paste the export code and click Import quiz.
The quiz appears in your quiz list with (IMPORT) after its name. It's unpublished, so shoppers don't see it until you publish it.
The quiz is copied at the moment you import it, so changes made in the original store after you got the code are included. If the quiz has unpublished changes, those are copied too.
If you see This code is invalid, expired or already used, go back to the original store and get a new code. If you see that the quiz behind the code was deleted, the quiz was deleted in the original store after you got the code.
Copy a quiz with an AI assistant
Ember, the assistant in the Lantern app, can do both steps for you: ask her for an export code in the original store, then ask Ember in the destination store to import it. The same works with Lantern's MCP connector in Claude or ChatGPT when it's connected to both stores. Find out how to connect it in Connect Lantern’s MCP to Claude or ChatGPT.
Moving product matching to another store
You can copy your product matching to the quiz in another store with a CSV file. In the original quiz, go to the Products step and click Export in the Spreadsheet card. Then, in the copied quiz's Products step, click Import in the same card and upload the file. Find out how in Create a quiz and import product matching from a CSV file.
This works when the question and answer text is the same in both quizzes, products and collections have the same handles in both stores, and variants have the same SKUs. Variants identified with ?variant= only work in the store they were exported from.
Important notes
Product connections
Product connections don't transfer with the quiz: the products, variants and collections on answers and in content blocks belong to the original store's catalog. Reconnect products in the destination store, or use a product matching CSV file as described above.
Integrations and data
These belong to the original store's accounts, so they aren't copied. Set them up again in the destination store if you need them:
Email and SMS marketing integrations
Analytics tools such as GA and Meta/Pixel
Review, subscription and cart drawer apps
Webhook URLs, Zapier connections and the Slack channel.
The Google Sheets spreadsheet and the monday.com board.
Submissions and analytics stay with the original quiz.
Language and wording
The following transfer with the quiz:
The selected language.
Wording entered in Quiz text.
Button text overrides entered under Button Design.
Questions, answers and custom page content, including Dynamic Content Blocks and placeholders.
Custom wording saved in the original store's Translations tab doesn't transfer.
For example, a Spanish quiz keeps its language and quiz-specific wording. A customized Spanish Start label saved only in the original store's Translations tab isn't copied; the imported quiz uses the built-in Spanish wording unless another applicable override is present.
Review the imported quiz and recreate any required shared wording in the destination store's Translations tab. See Change the language or the wording of your quiz for details.
Plan availability
Importing quizzes isn't available on all Lantern legacy plans. If the Import a quiz button asks you to upgrade, check your Billing page for more information.
As always, don't hesitate to contact our support team if you have any questions or need any assistance.
