Hosting Storyline Courses on SharePoint Online
Hello!
This topic has been covered extensively in the forums, but I have yet to find a solution that works today.
Does anyone know how to host Storyline courses on SharePoint Online?
We've tried changing all .html file extensions to .aspx, including within the files themselves.
When we upload the courses to SharePoint, and then click on the story.html or story_html5.html files, the individual .html files start downloading to our local machine, rather than playing the course.
We published with Storyline 3 and have tried using Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Internet Explorer.
Thanks for the help,
Michael

Thanks for the response!
I've tried the techniques outlined in the threads above and they don't work anymore.
Is there anything else I should do? Does anyone have a course working in SharePoint Online right now? If so, how did you get it to work?
I don't have any answers other than to say I am working on this same problem. I'll update if I find any solutions. I tried several of the previous solutions as well but none are working in the current versions of Sharepoint and Storyline 360.
Hi there, we use Sharepoint and Teams extensively. IT have forbidden us to use Articulate unless we host it within that environment. So Articulate has turned into a white elephant until we find a fix.
The solution we are likely to adopt is to pay money for an LMS within the Sharepoint ecosystem. A couple of options so far;
LMS3655 - this is the bee's knees and duck's guts benchmark LMS for Teams - works seamlessly within Teams, but costs lots (for 100 users, about $15k in the first year and $8k every year afterwards)
Moodle app for Teams - theoretically free, but IT have said they need to pay for Azure hosting, so not free. Not sure how much it is but I'm guessing less than LMS365. It won't have all the features of LMS365 though.
MS Learning Pathways - According to IT this can host SCORM, but I'm yet to be convinced of this.
Hi, I've uploaded SL360 to SharePoint for years, so perhaps I'm missing an important detail about your issue but here's how I do it:
SL360 packages the course in one folder ending with "- storyline output"
The link to open the course is for the file labeled "story", or "story.html, or "story.html5" found in the first level of the main folder. In the SharePoint browser, click the "..." and copy the URL provided.
Note: I do all my SP work in IE, as it's buggy using Chrome. I've never changed file extensions and have always had courses open and work as expected. Learners can use Chrome to open the course, though. I'm not sure about other browsers.
I hope this helps :-)
I had the same issue with the course files just downloading instead of running in the browser on sharepoint. For me, it turned out to be a sharepoint setting. MY IT department had disabled javascript from running by default. So, they set up a section for me that allowed javascript and it worked from there on.
