How to insert Engage 13 into Storyline
Feb 11, 2014
Hello Friends,
I'm attempting to insert an Engage 13 published file into a Storyline project. I followed the instructions here: http://www.articulate.com/support/storyline/how-to-insert-an-engage-1-interaction-into-storyline. However, the instructions do not match what I see with the published Engage files, specifically with the file name to change in step 2 from engage.html to index.html. The article was written for a previous version of Engage, so it's possible that the steps should be updated for the current version.
Does anyone have any insight into how to insert Engage 13 interactions into Storyline or how to insert an Engage 13 interaction into another Engage 13 interaction? Thanks in advance for any info!
Thank you,
Matt

I think Step 2 should read: ...and rename interaction.html to index.html.
Thank you for the reply. I attempted that replacement in the steps, but was not able to get it to work. I was able to see the interaction in the preview mode, but it does not appear when I publish the parent Storyline project.
To test, you either need to upload your Web-published Storyline course to some server, or for local testing publish to CD. See here a quick test of an Engage '13 interaction, running inside a Storyline webobject, never mind the horrible formatting: http://dev.keypointlearn.com/xcl71_SL/EngInSL/V1/story.html
Hi Matthew,
I just wanted to welcome you to Heroes, and Michael is correct you'll need to test the published course within the intended environment to fully test all the web objects. If you're in need of some testing sites, you could use one of the options included in this article:
Thank you for the replies. I'll upload my files and test them out on a server instead of just running local tests. And thank you for the list of testing sites. Those are nice to have available.
Glad we could help Matthew and please let us know if you need anything else!
Hi,
Today I tried to follow similar directions for Storyline 2 but couldn't find an interaction.html file in the output; only an interaction.html5 file. So, I changed this to index.html5 but it comes up as a blank engagement when I try to import it as a web object into a new slide in Storyline. What to do?
Hi Caitlin!
The good news is that you can import those interactions into SL2, whereas the above was a workaround for SL1.
Articulate Storyline has powerful features for creating highly interactive content. However, you can also take advantage of existing Articulate Engage interactions by importing them into Storyline. Here's how.
Hi,
These are the directions I followed. Why is my "Foley Catheter" slide (an engage interaction) coming up in a separate window with no interaction?
Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure without seeing what you are working with Caitlin. Would you be able to share your .story file for me to take a look at?
