    If you edit a task in the content bank, the change is updated to the items already in use. If you want to modify a new H5P task based on an old one, download the file yourself, save it under a different name in the content bank, and modify as you wish.

    This is an experimental way to download files. A more advanced way is planned in later versions of Moodle. Open a workspace. Add file activity. Open the file selector and from the file selector the content bank. Select the task you want to copy. When the file appears in the task selector, click the file. Press the Download button. The file is saved on your computer. Close the activity with the Cancel button. You can download the assignment to the content bank and modify it as desired.

    Do not export H5P contents as part of other materials, such as books

    The contents of the content bank can also be viewed and selected for use via the file selector, but this is not recommended. You cannot upload new content to the content bank via the file selector. In this way, for example, H5P activities added to the book will not appear in the assessment book. Monitoring performance is also difficult.
