Every year, we do a holiday-themed training game. This year, we are going with an ugly sweater theme. Essentially, get a question right, pick out a decoration for your sweater.
Here is where it gets interesting. I would love to be able to allow for learners to screen capture their final sweater and share it with a hashtag on our Facebook page. Is there a way to do this beyond just instructing them to hit "Print Screen"? Anything we can trigger in Storyline?
I know this is an odd and random question. Just wanted to pick your wonderful ID brains.
Cool feature, but incredibly complex in terms of coding and web knowledge. If you're prepared to likely double your project's costs I'd be happy to help otherwise tuck the idea for version 2. My two+ cents.
I tried earlier in the year and ran out of time. I managed to capture the screen asa base64 image but found that storyline variables are limited to 33K characters so I could not save the image in storyline. You could save it to the users PC and get them to upload it, but Facebook requires use of its API and a token to be able to post so again more complexity is added in.
I am spending a lot of time agreeing with Brian today but it is a cost you probably don't want.

Thanks guys. Maybe for now, the solution is to have them save it to their desktop.
