cmi.interactions not sent to LMS

Nov 18, 2012

QuizMaker seems to not send cmi.interactions to my LMS. I'm watching the console and no network request is ever made. Debug log as well shows no attempt to push a cmi.interaction variable.

I am aware of the FAQ page that details what is sent which is a good start but in my case the request is never sent in the first place.

Is the SCO looking for some LMS variable to determine if it should report cmi.interactions? Is there a setting I need to tweak? DO_NOT_REPORT_INTERACTIONS == true in Configuration.js, the default.

Any info is much appreciated, I am almost certain this is user error / SCORM ignorance on my part.

Other research: http://www.articulate.com/support/kb_article.php?product=ap9&id=9w602cf9wso5

I do see that my cmi.suspend_data is changing and it looks like its tracking the results but the format of section 3 is opaque to me.  Are there docs on this beyond the URL above?


Tx!

Hey John, 

It may be worth testing this in SCORM Cloud to help us determine if the issue is Articulate-related or if it's on your LMS's side. If it appears in SCORM Cloud as well, we'd be happy to take a closer look at what might be going on. If you can't replicate the issue in SCORM Cloud, it's probably an issue that you'd want to take to your LMS team. The articles here and here may also help clear up common LMS issues. Hope that helps

Hi Peter, 

   I checked one of my courses in scormcloud and it did not track interactions or send them to the server so my theories above are wrong. I'm doing something else incorrectly.

Here is a link to the course on scormcloud with a public invite so you can take a peek: http://cloud.scorm.com/sc/InvitationConfirmEmail?publicInvitationId=3840dde5-c3c4-4466-887c-613610215961

Did anyone ever find a resolution to this issue?

I am running into the issue of not tracking the questions in SkillSoft Advanced Compliance tool (lms) in Studio 2013 Quizmaker. I have a test that was originally set to unlimited attempts, (it would not report in the lms). So I reset the number of attempts to 10 for each of the 14 questions, and same thing happens. It failed as well.

I've had the SkillSoft engneers test and here's what they sent me:

The number has to be incremented in the interaction information for each question.

For example:

setvalue-cmi.interactions.0.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide1_TrueFalse_0_0-Error

Code=0

setvalue-cmi.interactions.1.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide2_TrueFalse_0_0-Error

Code=0

setvalue-cmi.interactions.1.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide3_MultiResponse_0_0-Error

Code=0

setvalue-cmi.interactions.1.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide4_MultiResponse_0_0-Error

Code=0

 

When it should be:

setvalue-cmi.interactions.0.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide1_TrueFalse_0_0-Error

Code=0

setvalue-cmi.interactions.1.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide2_TrueFalse_0_0-Error

Code=0

setvalue-cmi.interactions.2.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide3_MultiResponse_0_0-Error

Code=0

setvalue-cmi.interactions.3.id-Scene1_QuestionDraw01_Slide4_MultiResponse_0_0-Error

Code=0

 

My end goal is for the LMS to produce a report that shows the questions which indicates the questions that were missed.  

Any ideas?

Thx,

Pat
