How to identify the Storyline variables in suspend data

Hi Sinchu,

The suspend data of Articulate is not human readable, so there won't be a way to pull out specific variables.

Perhaps you could share a bit more about what you're struggling with and the community could offer other ideas? 

Hi Ashley,

i Have to create the Leaderboard in Moodle with some of the storyline variables and  i have come up with other solution to store the variables in SCORM and its worked.

Glad to hear that Sinchu! If you can share the steps here for anyone else in the community who needs to set up the same thing that would be great.

Hi Ashley,

I am in the situation to read the suspend_Data. is there any way we can read this.?

Hi Sinchu, 

There is not a way to read the data (for humans at least... LMSs should do it fine!) as we compress it to allow for more data to be captured. 

Have you run into an issue with your course? If you want to share more about that here perhaps it's something staff or the community can assist with! 

how to read suspend_Data using php

Hello Kalyani and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

Storyline compresses suspend data to avoid exceeding data limits imposed by some learning management systems. As a result, the suspend_data string in an LMS debug log isn't human-readable, so you won't be able to decipher it.

Hi Sinchu,

You can read the slide views, but I don't know about the variables.  It looks like your user went through 19 slides in the second module. Maybe accessed from a main menu?

Darn, I was hoping I could do the same thing as it would be very useful to identify the value of a variable I use that says whether someone skipped to the quiz.

It seems like if it is compressed that there should be a way to decompress it?
