We use an external survey authoring tool to create evaluations of our courses; it generates a url which we store in the LMS as an evaluation to be launched by the end of a course. I wanted to put survey in before the end of the course but it seems like Storyline 2 will allow me to import in an external quiz. However, before I embarked on recreating the quiz in Storyline, I wanted to ask if anybody else has had a similar experience or if anyone has found a workaround.
*I believe this is my maiden question out to the community so I also want to say that I am really happy to be here.
That sounds like a good workaround. Thanks, Michael! One question: is there a possibility that being embedded as a Storyline web object could hinder the survey's ability deliver accurate data on user ratings (as opposed to when it is configured to be a separate evaluation in the LMS and attached to the course?) Please let me know if my question sounded a little confusing. We use SABA for LMS. Thanks again!
Since a web object effectively links to some URL, I don't think it would somehow block the data being passed on to the LMS. I would do a quick test though to verify.

I'd agree with Michael here, it sounds like a web object is your best option and you can review the information here on how to insert it into the course. Also it's worth noting that web objects can't be previewed, and if you're testing the published output you'll want to test in the intended environment as detailed here.
Sorry Michael and Ashley for my bad manners and delayed thanks. I got lost in the blur of Thanksgiving. Very happy to be here and looking forward to learning even more -- and contributing.

Could you not display the external survey inside a Storyline web object?

Lucky for you it's a whole season of thanks - no worries about the delay. We're here no matter what. ;-)
