When Scorm (LTI) is enabled on Canvas you can only 'add' the Scorm package as an 'assignment' and thus any scores and student name etc. will be internally handled by Canvas. So yes when using Scorm and assignments you can let Canvas create certifications. But you donot have access to any of the LMS variables from inside Storyline when you add the course on a page in Canvas. Personally i think Canvas limits quite a lot of possibilities for the more tech savvy developer.

As here is stated...when using a LTI ( Scorm eg. ) you can use the Person.name.* variables
If its on a page its sandboxed and not easy to get.
Does the the Canvas LMS not have the ability to issue a course completion certificate with the student name on it?
