I recently came across this training video and saw that it was created in Storyline and shared in Canvas, AND can be accessed publicly without having to go through the Canvas registration system. Plus, it doesn't have the embedded look that I've seen, i.e. Storyline within Canvas interface and navigation. How did they do this?
That is interesting...the url looks like a Canvas URL, nevertheless its available without login indeed. The full page look aint to difficult...when adding a Scorm onto Canvas in the assignment options you have these options.. If you check 'Load this tool in a new tab' it will open as fullscreen page.
The public visibility of a course can be set in the settings of a course on Canvas. At our University this is locked, so i cannot test it any further. Im not sure whether this will suffice to create a anonymous publicly available url... like the sample... i cannot test it alas.

That is a cool video and I don't know how they did it either. Hopefully someone can weigh in who has an answer!

Here some info from the Canvas forum...with some comments of people not being able to get it working either ;-)

Well i figured out how to get the url...

But this one won't work as at our University the public urls are locked. I guess when that was open you could access this course/page with this url...
