Articulate storyline Quiz and Flash

Jan 21, 2014

Hi,

Is there an option to load the Articulate Storyline Quiz bank which I generated in to flash swf.

If so how to get the inbuilt variables used in the strory line quiz from flash? How to get the properties of the quiz from flash swf.

Hi Ammanga and welcome to Heroes! 

Are you looking to include a quiz you built in Quizmaker, within Storyline? If so, you'll want to follow the steps here to import into Storyline.  If you've already published the quiz (created in Quizmaker or Storyline) and you'd like to include it in a new file, you could add it as a web object, but that may cause issues with tracking/scoring if you need to use those features. 

Also, Storyline publishes a collection of files, which allows the content to progressively download elements. This means your content will have faster download and playback times. Currently, Storyline does not support publishing to a single SWF file. If you'd like to see this feature, pleasesubmit a request to our product development team.

If I'm misunderstanding your question, could you provide a bit more about what you're looking to do?

Hi Ammanga and welcome to the community!

If I'm understanding what you'd like to accomplish, you'd like to publish or use a single SWF file generated from Storyline and call the variables from the course using another SWF file. Is that correct?

If so, I'm afraid that's not possible. As Ashley mentioned, it's not possible to publish to a single file:

Storyline does not support publishing to a single SWF file

In either case, the variables are contained in your complete project file - they will communicate with a server, if uploaded to an LMS, but not another SWF file.
