# Sections

Sections cannot be created directly in the importer, you will need to create all your sections in the section builder before you can import questions into them.  If you include a section label on your import sheet that does not exist in the quiz, the import will fail.

{% content-ref url="/pages/-MkkeuHrIbEK\_gTIKfY7" %}
[Instructions](/doc/quizzes/creating-a-quiz/sections.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

Once you've created your sections, make a note of the **Section external ID** on platform. This is the ID that contains no capitals or spaces.

Use the Section External ID to assign questions to that sections on a sheet 

{% hint style="danger" %}
🚨 Questions that are being imported into the same section must be grouped together. CSVs with sections that aren't grouped together will fail import with a contiguous error.
{% endhint %}

![](/files/rTeFn91I6M50s1DoJ6MX)

Once all of your questions have been put into sections, you're ready to import the sheet.
