Hi Mathew,

Thanks for your input!!

I'm just curious, is it necessary now to declare lmsAPI?

I guess it can't hurt to declare it as "parent" though I haven't been using that line in my cw with SL2, SCORM 1.2. I guess I'll integrate it in my process.

Thank you for the reply Mathew!!

Hi all - further to this, am I able to pull the following from the LMS?

- first initial of first name

- email address

Thanks in advance!

Sal

Mathew,

Wouldn't firstName.charAt(0) work better in this case?

I am having some problems with this.  If I use the technique to pull usernames etc, it only works if I publish as flash/html5 fallback.  If I publish in Storyline 3 as html5 only....it does not work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for the offer.  File contains 3 slides, each trying to extract the username or email.  Works fine in flash, but not html5.

I use moodle as an lms.

Hi Matthew,

Probably a dumb question, but I have various screens which need various combos of first/last/email/first initial etc. Can I set the screens up with the necessary references, then add this full code to 1 trigger on each screen (regardless of whether I need to call all references?)

Will this break the page as it might be calling for references that aren't on this screen? Just trying to see if I can stream line..

Thanks for your continued help with this,

Sal

(FYI I'm building an induction module which needs to display usernames, Outlook logins, etc so this is really useful).
