# Add quizzes

## Before you begin

A quiz is a multiple-choice question learners must answer during a track before proceeding to the next challenge. Each quiz needs at least two possible answers. You can assign one or more answers as correct. Each challenge supports only one quiz. To add additional quizzes, create a separate challenge for each one.

**Note:** The `solution` field uses **zero-based indexing**, meaning `0` refers to the first choice.
