I am relatively new to Storyline, but can't work out how to see survey results.
I want to ask several questions of users of a course, to build up a better understanding of their needs.
But when I put in a results page, all I get is basically - thanks, or you passed. No information as to their responses. When I put the package into my LMS (Moodle), I get a report showing who's completed the survey - but again, no survey results.
I'm wanting to be able to compile the results across users, which means I have to be able to get the responses from each user - I still can't see at all how to do that.
It is up to your LMS in the option to provide reports with individual answers - and each LMS is different in terms of what they can report out on and how it'll be displayed for you.
As a point of reference, here is the quiz data sent to your LMS and if your LMS is unable to display the data needed, you may want to use a method such as Survey Monkey or even a Google Form that you could embed as a web object.
Any compilation would be independent of the Storyline software.
Hopefully someone in the community will be able to chime in and assist if they've accomplished this.
Just wanting some clarification on this. So, it's not possible to include a results slide from a survey within Articulate that display aggregate responses? So, the only way to display aggregate results is to set this up within LMS?
Thanks Leslie... i thought so too... thinking that student responses are not stored within SCORM itself but are fed into LMS grade book. We'll find a way to set this up.
Sorry to hear that you feel this feature is useless. Are you having trouble tracking your survey results within your LMS?
Articulate Storyline is designed primarily as an e-learning development tool to be used in conjunction with Articulate Online or your own learning management system (LMS) and does not offer tracking.
I shared above that it is up to the LMS in how they report on this data.
Im having the same issue. I have added to Moodle, expecting to seem some interaction results, but nothing, just that they completed it. There is no point in offering an option that isnt fit for purpose.
Hi there, Helen! Sounds like you aren't seeing survey answers from your course hosted in Moodle. Storyline sends learner responses to your LMS, and that will include survey questions. To make sure I know how to help, let me confirm a few steps!
Add survey question slides and a results slide that tracks each question.
Publish for LMS, and use SCORM 2004 to include question text.
Upload your content, and test reporting. You should be able to click on your learners' attempts and see something similar to this shot in Moodle:
I'm not a Moodle expert, but I believe your learners will have to be registered for you to track their responses. Guest access does not track learner information.
Let me know what you're seeing on your end, and I'll be happy to help!
Hi Crystal, thanks for getting back so promptly. Yes I have followed all those steps. Ive posted many assessments onto our academy site so am very familiar with the set-up. I’m trialling a small Moodle site with a number of my delegates and they’ve all completed an assessment from Storyline which does show all the interactions. I then did an evaluation survey and uploaded in the same way, but it just said when I clicked Interactions ‘Nothing to see’.
Have you included a Survey Results Slide at the end of your survey? If so, does that results slide have a "submit results" trigger in the trigger panel?
Was there an answer to this problem? I do not see any interaction data when using your SURVEY slides. I only get interaction data when using a QUIZ slide.
There is some machine language in the suspend_data field. Not sure how to begin parsing it.
Storyline will communicate survey data, but it is up to the LMS on how it will be handled and reported. If you have a Survey Results Slide with the survey questions you want reported to the LMS along with the tracking set to that Results Slide, you should get the data you're looking for.
Also: By enabling LMS debug mode, you can see the data that gets passed from Storyline to your LMS; however, the suspend_data string in an LMS debug log isn't human-readable since it is compressed to allow for more robust storage.
If you'd like extra eyes on your set-up and debug log, our Support team can assist! With your permission, they'll review the .story file and will delete it after having a close look.
Let me know if I'm off-base here, as I'm also happy to help!
My vendor was actually missing the setting when pubilishing and tracking results. They were only selecting the number of pages viewed rather than selecting the option below that to complete on the results of the quiz. Setting that option sends the interaction data through to the LMS.
It confused everyone, because of the term "Quiz" it was a survey, so it did not register to think of it as a quiz.
I am working on an almost identical issue with surveys now. An email response trigger providing survey results would be a great solution for my project (and keep me from having to evaluate other applications).
I know this is old. What if I just want to see the survey results without the LMS. My client would like to see these complete before it goes to the LMS.

Hi David
here is a previous thread with information about reporting survey results that may help.
Thanks Wendy, but I'm still lost. Even in Storyline I can't see the survey responses - just that they've been submitted.
Putting the LMS aside, how do I get to see the user responses?
Hi David!
Are you wanting to allow the user to review the survey results via the result slide options?
Check out the sample file attached.
As far as being able to have your LMS report on survey data, that is dependent on the LMS and my understanding is that it may not work in all.

Hello Marilyn and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
You are correct. You would need to utilize an LMS to do so or perhaps you could in a database, but that would be out of my realm of support.
Perhaps others in the community that have done similar will chime in to assist.

it is useless to offer a Survey module and have no way to tabulate or view the information

These are screen shots from 'reports', so you can nothing really helpful.
Thanks for those screenshots, Helen!

All fixed! Thanks for the reply!
Glad that you were able to find what you needed, Ted.
Thanks for chiming in to share an update :)

Hi MD Faculty,
I just wanted to share this documentation so that you were aware of some limitations as Matthew touched on.
