                  Why use batch update? 

                  Batch updating allows you to efficiently manage and edit multiple questions in your question bank simultaneously. Instead of manually modifying each question one by one, you can apply consistent changes to folders, tags, points, dimensions, and more across many questions—saving you significant time and ensuring consistency in your assessments.
