Blocking communication with LMS on every slide (only begining, end, pause)

Dec 20, 2019

Hello, 

our client doesn't want Articulate Storyline to send data/to communicate with LMS every single slide (low internet connection in user's locations). They just want that a course will send info:

1. At the beginning of a course (course started)

2. At the end of a course (course is finished)

3. When a user will close a course somewhere in the middle without finishing it (course unfinished or paused). 

I know that there is some solution in Captivate for that. (attaching screen). Does Storyline 360 have features like this? Or maybe we should do it somehow with triggers? I would be grateful for any advice if you have experience or knowledge in this field.

Hi Greg,

Happy to help here! 

When choosing the tracking/reporting options for your course, you can set up a trigger to communicate with your LMS when a course is completed. This guide provides a great walkthrough of how you can use a trigger to send a completion status to your LMS

Please let us know if you have any questions!

Hi Vincent, 

our customer tells us that data is still send to LMS on every slide. 

Is there a way to turn it off? I thought it will be turned off after changing settings in reporting based on linked article but it seems that it doesn't change it. 

We have changed parameter in file LMC/Configuration.js var FORCED_COMMIT_TIME = "0"; so it will not send data every 60 seconds.
