Manually entering student answers

Dear Moodle community, 

Due to a recent technical issue, our students were forced to take their quizzes on bubble answer sheets. These answers are available as text files. We would like to enter these answers into Moodle, with the availability for students to review their quiz answers at a later date. Is there a way to submit the text files into Moodle to upload  the answers without manual clicking through all of the answers for each student? Perhaps there's an API that would allow this?


Thank You, 

David

There is not an API for this.

It might be possible to work out the right data to insert directly into the database for this, and then possibly even make an interface for it, but that woudl be a bit of work.
