Steps

  1. Create or open the quiz in NotebookLM that you want to turn into a Google Form. Check that every question and answer choice is finished before you start.

  2. Install the NotebookLM quiz exporter extension in your browser, then sign in to the Google account whose Drive should hold the finished form.

  3. Open the quiz in NotebookLM, click the Export button and choose Google Forms from the list of formats. One click starts the export.

  4. Let the export run. The extension copies the quiz title, questions, answer choices and correct answer key into a new form.

  5. Open Google Drive, find the new form and open it. Read through the title and questions and fix any wording that came across oddly.

  6. In the form, open Settings, turn on Make this a quiz and choose when respondents see their marks. The answer key is already filled in.

  7. To convert several quizzes at once, use the batch export option, select the NotebookLM quizzes you want and export them all to Drive in one run.

Tips and common mistakes

Keep one quiz per NotebookLM note so each form title maps cleanly to a single topic.

Quiz mode must be switched on in Google Forms settings, otherwise the answer key is stored but nothing is graded.

Export into the Drive folder you already use for class so you do not have to hunt for the form later.

Batch export saves time, but open each form once before sharing it with students.

Questions

Do I need the extension to do this?

NotebookLM has no built-in Google Forms export, so the extension handles the copying and formatting. Without it you would retype each question by hand.

Will the correct answers carry over?

Yes, the exporter copies the answer key along with the questions. Turn on quiz mode in the form settings so Google Forms grades the responses.

Can I export more than one quiz at a time?

Yes. The batch export option converts multiple NotebookLM quizzes in one run and saves each form to your Google Drive.
