My computer needs repair. I have back ups of my storyline course from a week ago on my Google drive, but I'm wondering if I can recover my work from what I've published to Review 360?? That is the most recent version of my work. Thanks!
I wish what I found here is no longer true or might have already been updated with such a feature. I am hoping the most recent version on your computer has not yet been erased or that there is a way to copy from the hard drive so you could continue where you left off.
Right now, there isn't a way to draw a .story file from Review 360. Project files are stored locally, and then the published output is uploaded to Articulate's server. You check your temp folder to see if the latest version of your work is there.
Here's how to check:
Open this folder in Windows Explorer: %appdata%\Articulate\Storyline
Scan the contents of this folder for a file that starts with the name of your project. If you find one, copy it to your desktop. If you find more than one, copy the latest version to your desktop.
Change the file extension of the copy on your desktop from *.tmp to *.story.
Double-click the file to open it in Storyline.
In the meantime, we'd love to hear more about how having this function would make authoring in Storyline 360 easier for you. Feel free to drop us a line here, or share any extra insight in this discussion!
I did have it saved on my hard drive. The problem is, my computer won't
power on. I'm sending it to get fixed so hoping it will be there when it
returns.
What about getting the storyline file from a scorm zip file? I do have
several of these backed up in Dropbox. Can I somehow open from them and
continue working in storyline?

Hi Katherine, good question!
The only way to open a Storyline file is to access it from the original .story file. There isn't a way to open a file from the published output.
