## Overview
A **Checkbox** question lets learners select more than one answer from a list — ideal for "select all that apply" style questions. It's one of the question types you can pick when building a Form or quiz, alongside Multiple choice, Open text answer, File upload, Rating, Date and Time.

## Add a Checkbox question
1. Open the Form you want to edit — you'll land in the question builder in edit mode.
2. Click **Add question** at the bottom of the builder to add a new question. New questions start as a **Multiple choice** question.
3. With the new question selected, open the question type dropdown to the right of the question title and choose **Checkboxes**.
4. Type your question in the question field.
5. Enter your answer options. Click **Add Option** to add more, drag an option by its handle to reorder it, and use the ✕ to remove one.
6. (Optional) For a graded Form, tick the checkbox beside each option that is a correct answer.
7. Use the **Required** toggle if learners must answer this question. Your changes save automatically as you work.

> **Good to know:** A Checkbox question lets learners pick multiple answers. If you only want them to choose one, use a **Multiple choice** question instead.

## Things to keep in mind
* Checkbox questions accept more than one selected answer, unlike Multiple choice questions which accept only one.
* Grading is only relevant when the Form has a pass score. For a graded Checkbox question, a learner's answer is counted correct only if they select exactly the options you marked as correct — no more and no fewer.
* Marking correct answers is optional. If you don't mark any option as correct, the question still records the learner's selections but isn't scored.

## FAQs
**What's the difference between a Checkbox question and a Multiple choice question?**
A Checkbox question lets learners select more than one answer; a Multiple choice question lets them select only one.

**Can a Checkbox question be graded?**
Yes. Tick the correct options, and set a pass score on the Form. The learner must select exactly all the correct options (and no incorrect ones) for the answer to count as correct.

**How do I add more answer options?**
Click **Add Option** beneath the existing options. You can reorder options by dragging their handle and remove one with the ✕.

## Who can do this
**Owners**, **Admins**, **Managers**, **Content Managers** and **Instructors** can add and edit Form questions. **People Managers**, **Employees** and **Restricted** users have read-only access and cannot change a Form's questions.
