# Set Difficulty and Language

Implements the [difficulty and language recipe](/quick-start/quizzes/set-difficulty-and-language.md) with `outputType: "quiz"`.

```python
import os
import requests

token = os.getenv("AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN", "YOUR_API_TOKEN")
endpoint = "https://api.autocontentapi.com/content/Create"

payload = {
    "outputType": "quiz",
    "topic": "Cybersecurity basics for remote teams",
    "text": "Create 6 questions with a mix of recall and applied scenarios.",
    "quizDifficulty": "hard",
    "language": "español",
}

response = requests.post(
    endpoint,
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
    json=payload,
    timeout=30,
)

if response.status_code >= 400:
    raise SystemExit(f"Request failed: {response.status_code} {response.text}")

print("Quiz request accepted:")
print(response.json())
```

Set `YOUR_API_TOKEN` (or `AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN`) before running.
