What the original documents

Google officially documents creating Flashcards and Quizzes from notebook sources; a creator video shows adding sources, asking questions, and saving notes.

Claim boundary: The sources document the workflow, not the correctness of generated questions.

This page explains a source-documented method. It is not an independent Studio Nani reproduction or performance guarantee.
