Select Templates from the menu on the left-hand side.
Click the template and select Edit template in the side panel.
Click the question line where you want to paste the questions.
Click the down arrow under the "Type of response" column on the right-hand side and select the response type you want the questions to use.
Open your external document and copy the list of questions.
Return to the Template Editor and press Ctrl + V (Windows) or Cmd + V (macOS) on your keyboard to paste the questions.
Click Publish on the upper-right of the page to publish the template. If you're not ready to publish the template, you can go back to the templates list and come back when you're ready.
