Articulate Storyline and Articulate Presenter allow you to track a course either by the number of slides viewed or by one specific quiz (result slide). However, you may be able to track more than one SCO (shareable content object) in a single course, using any of the following unsupported methods. These articles refer to Presenter, but you should be able to to use the same techniques with Storyline.
Note: Articulate has not tested or verified the accuracy of the information provided in these articles. These methods are not supported by Articulate.
My Multi SCO package runs perfectly fine . However it does not track separate score for individual SCO. I assume this is due to limitation of SCORM 1.2 in terms of its ability to store only one score.
I am wondering if there is any alternate solution to the problem?
The link you're referencing is no longer valid as I believe he took his site down. Unfortunately I don't have additional information to point you too for that specific set up and we don't offer support for multi SCOs so I'll have to defer to the community.
I'm not entirely clear on what you'd like to accomplish, but multi SCOs are not something I can offer support for - so you'll want to look at the items linked in the article mentioned above. Although one of those is no longer a valid link, as the user took down the site.
Best of luck with your project, and you're welcome to start a new thread sharing the exact detail of what you need in the hopes that the community can respond.

Hi, Any idea how the tracking of slides will work on an repacked multi sco, as in, is it still possible to get a complete status after seeing 80% of the slides? has anyone tried that? Or the idea will be to get a complete status via a final quiz?
This forum discussion is a bit older so I'm not sure that individuals are still subscribed, but the multi-SCO courses are not something that our team can offer support for, so you may want to message the users here by clicking on the "contact me" button within their individual profiles.
I understand that this thread is a bit dated, but I am also looking to track multiple SCOs with one SCORM file. I have set up a variable for each section of the course. Is there a way for Storyline to report each of these variables to Blackboard, using SCORM 2004?
You mentioned that you have set up a variable in each section of the course. You can try to use the method in this article for reporting a variable to your LMS!
Ren—I see the instructions of how to create the multi-sco, but could you point me in the direction to download the software to do it? I feel like a chicken with my head cut off because I've been searching.. it's probably right there and I'm missing it.. haha Thanks in advance!
Thanks for following up on this. I have to apologize for the resource shared on Rustici's SSP software! We reached out to get confirmation on how to access it, and they mentioned they no longer support it. This helps explain why it was difficult to locate a link!
I'm sorry you spent so much time looking for it, but we'll be sure to update our articles to reflect this change.
Hello, I am also interested in a multi-sco feature. I see this is a feature that has been requested/needed as far back as 9 years ago. Is this feature possible?
On a related note, there is a way to manually create multi-sco package from multiple scorm courses. I'm familiar with this as this was something we did prior to Articulate Rapid Tools, back when we hand code html and flash courses.
However, my question is more on how can we link one sco to another from within the content using Storyline / Quizmaker?
i.e. The initial sco would be a Quizmaker quiz that I'd like to link to the other scos depending on the results. Do I point to the other sco manifest file in order to launch it?
(Link below for those still interested in how to manually structure a multi-sco package, I found this link in my quest to refresh my memory)
In the meantime, do you know how to link one sco to another from within the content using Storyline / Quizmaker? Do I just use a link to file and point to the other sco manifest file in order to launch it?

If you'd like a built-in feature to track multiple SCOs in a course, we welcome your feature requests.
If this isn't what you'd like to do, can you give me a little more information?
Thanks!
Thank you, Christine.
I'll take that answer as a NO, but the additional info was helpful.
Just to confirm - I was wondering if one can author a mutliple-SCO course package from Articulate Storyline.
I was successful using the Use Dreamweaver to repackage content with multiple SCOs link above, Thor. But you cannot do it just using Storyline. If you have Dreamweaver then the packager is awesome. Otherwise, I was also successful using the instructions on https://www.opensesame.com/blog/combining-multiple-scos-one-scorm-course to help modify the imsmanifest file for this.
The key is to use the lms_index.html file as the SCO launcher file.
Hey Alicia,
Just wanted to say thanks for sharing that information :) Hopefully that will help Thor with his project, or with future projects.
Have a great day!
Hello All,
I have managed to create a successful Multi sco Scorm 1.2 package using this article
https://www.opensesame.com/blog/combining-multiple-scos-one-scorm-course
My Multi SCO package runs perfectly fine . However it does not track separate score for individual SCO. I assume this is due to limitation of SCORM 1.2 in terms of its ability to store only one score.
I am wondering if there is any alternate solution to the problem?
Can someone please advise.
Thanks
Ganesh
Hi Ganesh,
There is a method described here as well, but they're not supported by Articulate.
Curious if it is still possible to use Dreamweaver for this - Dave Mozealous's page referenced above is no longer online.
I'm also interested on multi-sco
Do you have an updated link for this option: "Use Dreamweaver to repackage content with multiple SCOs"?
Thanks
Hi Carla!
I'm not sure about the previous links above, but we have this information:

This tool is helpful:

You can use it to create multi-item SCOs.

Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for reaching out! Storyline doesn't support reporting multiple SCOs in the same course, though we do offer some unsupported workarounds:
You mentioned that you have set up a variable in each section of the course. You can try to use the method in this article for reporting a variable to your LMS!
Take a look and see if this helps!

Hi, Bernice.
I see this is a feature that has been requested/needed as far back as 9 years ago. Is this feature possible?
This is still an open request with our team, so I don't have any news to share on this feature.
I will update this discussion if this request makes it to our feature roadmap.
Thanks,
