Reporting conditional results
Aug 29, 2016
I am using variables to direct allow users to
A. Select a specific role or roles inside the training
B. Be directed to the appropriate (sometimes overlapping) scenes
C. Be directed to quiz questions based on their role(s)
I have created 4 discrete results slides to cover each possible combination of questions.
Understanding that I can pass only 1 results slide to an LMS, can anyone suggest efficient methods for pushing the appropriate pass or complete record to an LMS without burdening the user to answer some "fluff" question at the end?
Thank you.

You could try a Javascript trigger that passes the value of a custom variable (aka the result of one of the four quizzes) toan LMS as discussed here.
Actually, I think it is probably simpler than that. I only need to tell the LMS that the user has passed the course. Would it work to set the variable from the results slides' success layers? How would I send it to the LMS?
Hi Jacqueline!
Here is another idea:
If you'd like to report completion to your LMS on a specific slide in your Articulate Storyline course, see this article for one way to do it.
If you are controlling the course via navigation, this could possibly work for you.
Just a thought.
Thank you both for the ideas. I ended up using a combination of things:
At each of the 4 possible results slides, on the Success layer only, I set a trigger to move to a short survey question when the timeline started, effectively hiding the initial result slide if they passed the quiz.
I followed the directions you provided for the short survey slide to create a "pass" text variable, and both adjusted the variable to set the answer to that "pass" variable and submitted it when the timeline started, effectively hiding that slide as well.
I then created a 5th results slide to follow the survey question congratulating the user and when publishing, sent the results of that 5th slide to the LMS.
Works like a charm. :)
Thanks for popping in with an update. Glad you were able to find something that would work for you.
