Passing Storyline Scores to LMS

Hello Parm and welcome to Heroes!

Wanted to make sure that you have a results slide set up after the quiz which will trigger to submit the results to your LMS.

However, it will be up to them as to how they display the results.

You can look here for information on troubleshooting the tracking and reporting with your LMS.

Also, you can test the course on the SCORM Cloud, which is the industry standard for testing, to verify that the results are being set.

Let us know if you need anything else.

Hi Parm,

Storyline has four different options to pass completion to an LMS, two of which also include the success status as detailed here:

• Passed/Incomplete
• Passed/Failed
• Completed/Incomplete
• Completed/Failed

Many LMSs track both a completion status and a success status. To report both statuses, choose either Passed/Incomplete or Passed/Failed when publishing Storyline content. Completed/Incomplete and Completed/Failed report only the completion status.

As Emily shared, its up to each LMS how they display the data that Storyline sends and what option you need to use within the Storyline LMS publishing set up (ie Scorm 1.2 vs Scorm 2004 vs. AICC, etc. or the completion/success statuses above). If you test your course at SCORM Cloud, you'll be able to see a good indication of the data that is being sent and if the score is not recorded at all.

Hi Lizzie,

Glad you were able to figure it out - that article was specific for text variables, and numeric variables are handled a bit differently. This article will walk you through the different options for data entry fields. 

Hello Nicole - 

Articulate Storyline lets you track a course either by the number of slides viewed or by a single quiz (result slide). Tracking both measurements for the same course isn't supported. Similarly, tracking multiple quiz scores in the same course isn't supported. However, you may be able to track more than one SCO (shareable content object) in a single course using one of the unsupported methods in this article.

To report both completion status and success status to an LMS, select either Passed/Incomplete or Passed/Failed as the reporting option when publishing your Articulate Storyline content. See this article for more information.

Hi All - 

I have created a quiz in the form of a game. We are not as interested in who 'passed' or 'failed' and the results percentage, we are more interested in creating a competition based on high points scored instead.  For example, 100% = 300 points.  (that's right now, of course it's going to get much bigger and more complex)....

Is there a way to pass the points to the LMS instead of the percentage? We would rather see a report that indicates 300 points instead of 100%, We have a big quarterly event and want to create a challenge - high scorer wins....

I am using Convert to Free Form slides with Drag and Drop and a results slide (which will become multiple results slide as we add levels, but for now - there is only 1 level and 1 result slide).

I'm using Storyline 2. :(

Thanks all!

Hi Emily,

Thanks for your response. I do have the Results Slide that I use for reporting on the LMS. But the only information that goes through is the status Passed/Incomplete or Passed/Failed depending upon how I set it up.

On the other hand, the client is looking for the ACTUAL score (70%, 80% and so on). The output options while publishing do not have the option of passing the score over to the LMS.

Thanks for sending the links.

I believe this is one HUGE area of potential for Articulate - if you can partner better with LMS systems you have a potential goldmine. I struggle with this area - how to get our lms (D2L) to read Articulate Storyline created modules. The grading piece would be such a huge benefit to so many of us!

Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to have a quiz which gets graded but then to not send the score to the LMS? 

So can someone tell me if it is or is not possible to have an actual % passed from a result slide to a LMS ?

Hi Tracy! As you can see from this conversation, that may be based on your LMS reporting ability. You can verify testing in SCORM Cloud if needed to identify if any issue lies within your project or your LMS. Are you having difficulty with something or was that just a general question?
