Failed to upload your file in Teams Quiz Form

We have just started using 365 for our school.  I am testing the Teams assignments/quiz functionality.  I've created a quiz in Teams, where a student needs to upload a file.  However when a student tries the quiz, they keep getting the "Failed to upload your file" message.  Interestingly, when they open the Form directly (not in Teams-Quiz), they can upload the file. 

 

Please help!  This is for a foreign language class, so students need to upload their handwritten work.

    I'm currently experiencing the same issue with Teams. 

     

    If we upload a file in the Quiz we uploaded, it keeps giving us this error message:

    This error occurs everytime any user tries to upload anything into the Quiz. (Word, Excel, Pictures)

     

    We have similar issues when we use Forms without Teams, these arrors occur only part of the time, somthimes the upload screen just freeses of the whole Form has to reload. Sometimes we have to attempt the upload severals time before it actually works.

      luismi77 Dear Brother 

       

      I checked it really worked. I basically I understand reacher than working on the forms in the general we need to work on the forms which has been created after launching the assignment which is inside the Groups.   I tried it worked. ;   but I need to figure out some good sequence so that it become a good practice.

       

       

      MS developer team can help use to work directly to create forms under groups and that should be easy accessible from assignment action.  at present the assignments are accessible which are available only in a common area. not the forms inside the groups.

       

      developer team please answer is there any way we directly open forms > go to particular group forms area and create form over there and that should be accessible by our assignment section.

       

      since we are creating the forms inside the particular group form area by default the upload error should be eliminated.

        I accept sir. 

         

        The problem is, there are multiple groups and we need to enter in each and every group to edit.
        Isn't there any other solution instead of going to Group forms and edit again and again?

      Thank you sir! Your video is the right way to solve my problem. It is interesting that you give the class of Mechanics of Materials while I am giving Engineering Mechanics: Statics and Dynamics. MS Forms needs to address many features useful for Math & Engineering disciplines like accepting a range of answers as valid. However, that will be for other post.

      Thank you again!

    techadminscesIt seems that when you create a quiz in Forms, user uploaded files are meant to be saved at your personal OneDrive. However, when you bring the quiz to your class group, the quiz is now meant to save the files at SharePoint.

     

    A few days ago I had to re-create the question and it managed to get uploaded to the new SharePoint address. However, that stopped working. Also, I don't seem to find the Microsoft Forms' file anywhere in Sharepoint.

     

    If I open the shared quiz in Forms (forms.office.com), Group Forms, I am not able to add file upload questions.

     

    Could someone at Microsoft help us?

      Thanks a lot mijawidnazir for the very clear tutorial. However, when I try to add a question in the test under Group forms, the option "File upload" is not clickable...  Any idea why this happen and how to solve it?
