How many glossary terms can one add to the Glossary feature?

Hi Leslie! 

I am not aware of an actual maximum listed for this feature. Are you having difficulty with something?

No but I have about 900 terms in our typical telecom glossary. I did not want to add 900 manually just to find out it would not be able to publish. So I wanted to know of any limitations.

Okay, let me try to gather some information for you. Thanks for the additional details

Hi Leslie!

Okay, I cannot find any limitation published, but I will say that another user reported an issue with 700 items that our QA Team is still looking into. 

What format is your glossary in currently, could you attach it as a resource to your project?

Please help, I am unable to find the Glossary feature in the Articulate 9

Hi Mridula!

Hello,
I was wondering if the problem was solved. I'm working with articulate storyline 360 and I noticed that after I've added all my glossary term (something around 100/200 terms) my lesson stopped working, I'm not able to publish or even preview the course I'm building.
Is there any solution?
Thank you

Hi Alessia,

There hasn't ever been a documented limit, and I've heard of folks using a lot more terms than 100-200 (although it is a lot!). 

I'd want to know a bit more about your set up: 

• Are you using the latest update of Storyline 360, Update 11?
• where are you storing/editing your project files? I'd want to make sure you're working on local projects
• Was this file initially created in an earlier version of Storyline? 
• Have you looked at the system requirements for Storyline 360? They are minimums - so the more you add to a course the more resource intensive it'll be. 
• Have you tried closing other programs while working on this file to see if Storyline performs better?

If you'd like to share a copy of your .story file with the glossary terms, I'm happy to see how it behaves for me too.
