Inserting a Google Form into Articulate
Mar 27, 2014
We've been using this tutorial to embed a google form into a storyline presentation.
http://www.articulate.com/support/storyline/how-to-insert-a-google-doc-spreadsheet-or-form-into-storyline
On the presentation the link to put into articulate is at the bottom of the screen, but that is not how it looks on our google docs. We tried to used the 'file --> embed' link, and articulate says it is not a valid address. When we try the 'link to share' link address when we publish the presentation, the form is not there. (the slide is blank). Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks -

Hi Chelsea,
How does it look on your Google doc? Could you share a screen capture of that or a link to check it out?
Here is a link to the form, I think this will let you view it, but let me know if it doesn't.
Thanks!
Hi Chelsea,
I loaded that Google form into a Storyline file as a web object and published it here. It all worked successfully and you should see the test information I submitted through it as well.
Hey Ashley -
I can definitely see the form in your published story, as well as your submission (awesome!!) but it still fails to show up when I duplicate the steps in our presentation. (we can see it when we 'preview link', but when we publish the presentation that slide is just blank)
I have attached the presentation if you don't mind to take a look to see if we missed something...
Thanks!!
Hi Chelsea,
I published your course and placed it within my Articulate Online account and it displays fine for me. Can you check this version here? You'll need to test the published output within the intended environment to see any web objects as testing it locally will cause you to encounter a security restriction.
AH. I found the problem. When we actually publish it in our learning manager I'm able to see the form. THANK YOU for your help!!!!!
No problem Chelsea! Always want to test the published version within the environment just to be sure it all works well! If you're not ready to post it publicly, there are a few options here on how to place your content on a web server.
Thank you!!
Help! I'm having the same issue but just trying to publish it to Google Drive. It shows a blank screen and not the form.
Hi Amy,
Are you publishing first to a local drive and then placing within the intended environment of your Google drive?
I got it to work. I did publish first to the local drive and then shared it on Google Drive. I could not get Jotform to work. This will really help us because we don't have an LMS.
Thanks
Amy
Thanks for the update Amy - glad you got it to work!
Ashley-
Another question. Is there a way in Storyline to build a form and have Storyline email or some how return the form information to you without an LMS?
Thanks
Amy
Hi Amy,
We don't support an email results feature - so what about embedding a Google form as a web object?
Thanks for the quick response. The google form will work for the example I was creating for a class that I am taking. My issue is work. I have to house the Storyline Output folder on a sharepoint site and then link the index.html file to our website. I'm not sure if the Google form will still work correctly or not. Have to do a test.

Hi Amy,
I'm not familiar enough with Sharepoint to know, so hopefully you'll be able to test to confirm whether or not it will work.
Where is the tutorial on How-to-insert a google form into storyline?
