Step 3: Launch the Google Doc quiz generation flow and select the document from your Google Drive

Once you have entered the GPT for Forms interface, select the “YouTube video” option and on the next screen paste the URL of the YouTube video you want to create a quiz from.

Step 4: Select the transcription method for the YouTube video.

GPT for Forms uses AI technology to extract or create a transcript from the video. This feature is particularly useful for videos without pre-existing captions, in other cases you can use the power of AI to generate captions. Please note that this feature requires additional tokens in this case. Also, the maximum length of the video in this case will be approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes.

Step 5: Create a quiz.

To create a quiz, simply click on the ‘Generate Quiz’ button and the quiz will be generated. 

You can choose the number of questions and the level of difficulty. The AI will then generate a quiz based on the video content.

Step 6: Integrate the quiz into your form

Include the quiz in your Google Form by clicking ‘Add to Form’. Customize the form as required.

As you can see, this simple process streamlines the process of creating a Google Form quiz from a YouTube video, thanks to GPT for Forms.
