1. General description

- Show custom final messages according to the number of correct answers in the Quiz.
- Reward the knowledge of the participants with a final draw among all the participants that have answered correctly the quiz questions.
2. How is the participation flow of the user
What will the user experience be like? The promotion is made up of different pages that the user will find when interacting with the promotion to participate, such as: the initial welcome page, the registration page, where the user will register with their data, the page that presents the questions of the quiz, etc. As a whole, the different pages will make up the structure of the promotion and the flow of participation that the user will follow to complete the promotional mechanics of the promotion.
Additionally, as the administrator, you can select which participation flow you want users to follow. Specifically, there are three different participation flows available: the Identified Mode, where the user must identify and register before playing; the Visitor Mode, where the user plays first and then identifies and registers; and the Anonymous Mode, where the user participates without identifying or registering. The choice of one mode or another will determine how participation and the user experience in the promotion will unfold.
3. Create the promotion

4. Set up of the Knowledge Quiz
Set up the questionnaire with the questions you want to ask your participants. To do this, go to the promotion's "Editor":
Below are the steps you need to follow to customize your Quiz:
4.1. Create the questions
Then access the section Participation > Edit Knowledge Quiz and go under the Knowledge quiz tab.
When you access it, you will find the following configuration tabs:
The first step is to create the questions. Below, we explain the different types of questions you can set up:
a) "Single answer" question: The participant will only be able to select one of the possible answers:
b) Multiple answer question: The participant may select more than one answer.
c) "Sortable answer" question: the participant must put the answers in order (using all the options or a set number of them).
d) "Drop-down list" question: When the user places their cursor within the field, a list of possible answers is displayed.
e) "Autocomplete list" question: When the user places their cursor within the field and starts to type, the page displays possible answers.
f) Radio button list: All the answer options are simultaneously displayed in a list format. The participant can select the answer they want.
Next, decide what type of question you want according to the Quiz you want to design. Once you are clear about the type of question you want, click on the "New question" button:
The following window will appear to guide you through the creation process. Choose the type of question that best suits your needs based on what you have in mind:

This option allows you to set the minimum score required to complete the quiz, that is, the minimum number of points the user must achieve for their quiz to be considered completed.
Practical example: In a knowledge trivia with 4 questions, where each correct answer scores 1 point, a minimum score of 3 points is set.
This means that the system will consider the quiz completed if the user has answered at least 3 out of the 4 trivia questions.
Close participation once the trivia is completed
If you define a minimum score, you can also enable the option “Prevent users from participating more than once after completing the stage”, which closes the stage for the user once they have completed the trivia, so they will not be able to participate again.
You can activate this option by checking the following box, which is available in the stage configuration options:
B. Create final messages based on correct answers
If you want the participant to receive a personalized message based on their result on the final quiz page, you can create different final messages:
