Quiz data sent to LMS - more info on string
I am looking for more information on the string "id" that is sent by Articulate Storyline 2 to the LMS. I referenced this article "Quiz Data Sent to an LMS in Articulate Storyline", and do see the information "id" reported in my LMS. I have some examples of "id" strings that are reported; the first elements are clear. What do the numbers at the end of the string represent? It appears that the 2nd number (y) may be the attempt number (how many times the learner attempted the question), what is the first number (x)?
Scene#_QuestionDraw#_Slide#_QuestionType_x_y
Examples of the string "id" produced by Storyline:
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide8_FreeFormDragDrop_0_0
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide8_FreeFormDragDrop_0_1
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide8_FreeFormDragDrop_0_2
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide8_FreeFormDragDrop_0_3
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide8_FreeFormDragDrop_1_0
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide8_FreeFormDragDrop_1_1
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide5_TrueFalse_0_0
Scene4_QuestionDraw01_Slide5_TrueFalse_0_1
The LMS also is reporting the student_response and correct_response, but is separate data from this string. Any insight is greatly appreciated, thank you!

Hi Selene,
The XY numbers you're seeing there are for {Quiz attempts} and {question attempts}.
If you're seeing something that looks a little off knowing that information, please let us know and we'll want to have you run an LMS debug log to confirm what Storyline is sending vs. what your LMS is showing.
Perfect! That makes sense as this quiz has multi-attempt questions and multi-attempt quiz. Thank you so much.
No problem Selene - and I learned something new on that one too as I had to ask our developers!
Can anybody tell me when this data is being passed to the LMS? Is it when the result slide is visited? upon exiting? or every time a quiz question is answered and submitted?
Hi Calvin! This data flows to the LMS either when learners visit the designated quiz result slide, or when they've viewed the required number of slides.
You can read more about that here!
thanks Crystal. this is what i'm looking for. As for which slide has been visited is it recorded upon exit of course or every time they enter a slide?
hi crystal, it seems that data is being sent once they close the module even without reaching the results slide. below is a screenshot of the three quiz result being recorded (closed browser after 3rd question) but there's a total of 10 questions on that quiz.
Hi Calvin,
Data is flowing from Storyline to your LMS on each and every slide that has a question, but the completion results is only passed once they reach that - either the slides viewed or results slide.
