Regardless of where you use the feature, you’ll need to copy an automatically generated Anki query and paste it into Anki’s “Browse” window to filter the relevant cards.

To create a Custom Study Session with the cards from your Qbank block, simply head to the Decks tab in Anki, click on the Custom Study Session deck, click Options, paste the query into the Search field, and click Rebuild. Once you do, you will be all set!
