What it is for#
This is where the project's reusable content lives: tests and interactive pieces (games, exercises, role plays, external content). A piece is written once and several actions can use it at the same time.
Nothing is assigned from here: to use a piece you go through the action, in Actions, and choose there which piece it uses and with what pass mark.
This screen is only available in Spanish, even with the app in English. The labels below are written as they appear, with their meaning.
Where it is: Manage › Journeys › Content Library.

Load from template (Cargar desde plantilla)#
It reads a spreadsheet and creates the tests as drafts, inactive, so you can review them before anyone sees them. Descargar plantilla-tests.xlsx gives you the header row and a worked example. There is one row per option, and blank cells inherit from the row above:
| Column | What goes in it |
|---|---|
| Test | Test name. Blank: same test as the row above. |
| Pregunta | Question wording. Blank: another option for the question above. |
| Tipo | Unica (single), Multiple, Texto libre (free text) or Numero (number). Blank: single. |
| Opción | Text of one possible answer. One row each. |
| Correcta | Si, X or 1 on the correct ones. Blank: incorrect. |
| Explicación | Shown at the end. It belongs to the question: enter it once. |
| Comentario | Shown to whoever picks that option. Optional. |
Drag the file in or pick it with Elegir fichero. It accepts .xlsx, .csv and .tsv; old .xls files cannot be read (save them as an Excel Workbook (.xlsx) first).

Things to know#
- Changes reach every action that uses the piece. Before editing a test in use, check the Se usa en column.
- The pass mark is not here: it lives in each action, because the same test can require 60 in one and 90 in another.
- This screen is only in Spanish, even with the app in English.
