Creating a triple nested array

Questions and Answers
1

I created an online question/quiz system and am looking to change over the currently hand-coded json data for the questions to strapi so that it can be managed/edited a bit more easily. The way I handle the data for questions at the moment doesn’t seem to work in strapi and I wanted to make sure that I’m not missing something. The system has question categories, and each category has multiple questions. Think of it like a Jeopardy board where each column is a topic, and there are multiple questions in each column. Currently my JSON looks like this:

"questions": [
[  //one array per category
  {
    "text":"This is where the questions text would go for the first question of the first category",
    "answers": [
      "Answer one",
      "Answer two",
      "Answer three",
      "Answer four"
    ],
    correctAnswer: 1,
    "feedback":"This is a message to the user after they guess the answer"
  },
"text":"This is where the questions text would go for the second question",
    "answers": [
      "Answer one",
      "Answer two",
      "Answer three",
      "Answer four"
    ],
    correctAnswer: 1,
    "feedback":"This is a message to the user after they guess the answer"
  },
  //... there's one entry for each question within the category
],
[
//repeat for each category

Because the “answers” object is an array, it seems like I would need to be able to triple-nest “components” to be able to achieve that, however that doesn’t seem possible in strapi right now. Is there some other way to go about doing this (short of re-engineering all of my code that parses this so that it can be in a different format)?

component nesting to any level is possible if you are using latest version of strapi. However it can only be achieved by modifying the json schema manually.
It only support 2 level nesting if you are do it through strapi admin.

I am running the latest, thanks for the information. If i modify the schema manually to create the content type, will I still be able to do content editing/creation within strapi admin or does the UI only support 2 layer nesting for editing as well?

you can do the content add/edit/delete from strapi admin for all nested component.
