How Do I create an Actor query string when using xapi statemnt trigger but publishing for scorm
I am trying to test the xapi statement trigger and I am stuck on how to "supply the actor via a query string" as I am publishing as a scorm file?
Hi Jared, I have the same question. It looks like the new features don't make sense at the moment.
Hi Oleg, I was just reading through your post and I agree, getting the actor from LMS with scorm only is a big hurdle. my IT team do not understand enough about Xapi to help instantly. So yes this feature is very hard to use for the average instructional designer and the support documentation falls a little short of being helpful.
A xApi-statement or actor is meant to be sent to a LRS with xApi. Scorm is NOT xApi and so using actors and xApi statements and then publishing to Scorm will never work.
Do read up on Scorm, Scorm2004, LMS, xApi, Tincan and LRS if it dazzles you. Basically its all about communication with a Learning Management System (LMS) or Learning Record Store (LRS).

I understand Storyline's implementation of it is confusing. But basically Scorm and xApi are 2 different ways in communicating with a backend. Apparently Storyline uses both to ensure compatability on any LMS.Hello Math,
We have implemented simultaneous support for SCORM and xAPI in courses developed by Adapt Lerning using this extension and the "Spoor" launch method (in the description on GitHub it is written how it works).
It seems to me that it will not be difficult to implement the same function in Articulate Storyline.
Regarding the update in November 2021, I see no point in it, since it is not difficult for me to publish the course twice in different formats and without a new function.
