Autorun feature?

Hi Rick,

I'd suggest placing your published output within the intended environment for proper reviewing and testing. If you don't have access to or don't want it to be public yet on a web server you could use one of these options mentioned in the support article: 

• Tempshare: This is a free service provided by Articulate for testing Storyline content. Note: Uploaded files will be deleted after 10 days.
• Amazon S3: Amazon S3 offers free hosting with generous usage limits. If you go over your limit, you'll be charged a graduated fee.
• Dropbox: Place your published output in the Public folder in your Dropbox account to share it with others.
• Google Drive: Change the story.html file to index.html, and set the sharing permissions to Public. Here's how.

If you'll eventually be hosting on an LMS, you could use a site like SCORM Cloud which is a free industry standard testing method for SCORM content. 

Ashley, thank you so much. I will check out these sites and figure out which works best for me!

And there are some issues, likely beyond the scope of this forum, but I will document them anyhow.

When I do as directed and drag or upload the output folder to these sites, I get either a warning dialog box telling me that a website wants to open web content using the program on my computer, or I simply cannot upload a folder; it seems I'd need to upload individual files which, obviously, is not optimal.

If anyone has insight, I'd appreciate it.

Hi Rick,

Did you zip the file or were you using the output folder? 

Okay, SCORM Cloud requires .zip files; my bad for not reading the directions. I imported the .zip, launched the course, and it ran fine. Closed the course and checked the SCORM Cloud Sandbox page - Passed with flying colors!

Thanks for the update Rick!  I use the zipped files for SCORM Cloud and Tempshare (both required) and then if I need to ftp the course to my server I just use the published output folder...so it all depends on where you'll be placing your final product. 

Ach, Tempshare still asks if I want to open the file; it does not upload. Maybe I will try again when I get home and do not have a corporate firewall to deal with.

Hi Rick,

I just tested Tempshare to see if there was anything going on with that end, and everything worked as expected:

1. I dragged a zip file to the box where it said "drag your file here" 

2. It prompts me in that box if I want to upload file or cancel 

3. I choose upload file - 

4. I then see a message that says "Okay! you're all set. Use the link below to access your content. It will expire in 10 days."

So it seems the site is up and running. Keep me posted what you find out when you try from home.
