In Story 1 I was able to use a Button trigger to send me an e-mail. Here's what I used in the trigger:
Email: magnussenm2@citadel.edu?subject=Title IX Basic Training&Body=I have completed Title IX Basic Training.
It worked in 1 but when I took the course after updating to 2 I received a popup box with WARNING and the email didn't send. Is there a new way to have this happen? I have a campus full of folks that will be hitting my online courses within a month and I need to track their completion (no LMS).
What was the warning that was received? Were you testing the course within the intended publish environment or testing it locally? The email trigger has some known limitations as described here, but I haven't seen an error message particularly, just that it doesn't work as expected.
If you view published Storyline content on your local hard drive or send it to someone else to view on their local hard drive, you'll encounter security restrictions from the computer, web browser, Flash Player, and network that'll cause various features of your content to fail.
To properly test your published content and share it with others, upload it to the environment for which it was published. Please review the following article for details.
Hi, It's weird. I publish it to our server, then access the file using Chrome to test. I'm getting some e-mails back. So it's something else. Let me dig around.

Hi Mark,

Sorry, got tied up with an investigation.
It says:
