Exporting and Retrieving Variables in Storyline 360?

Oct 29, 2019

Does anyone have a good resource for exporting a variable in one SL file/lesson, and having another SL file/lesson retrieve the variable? For example, if I wanted a user to type his/her name to set a Name_Variable, and have all of the following SL files/lessons reach out and import the Name without the user having to re-type his/her name with each new lesson; how would I do that?

I am researching now, but curious if anyone else has a proven solution.

Yes, LMS, and may have to tap into xAPI. Variables to include names, teams,
avatars, accumulating scores... This is a new design concept that I haven't
seen anyone do before, so trying to get a head start before plowing
forward. This would probably be a good E-Learning Heroes Challenge topic
too.

Many Thanks for your response!
