Hi everyone. I'm facing an urgent issue in Storyline. In a course, I need to provide a PDF for download. However, in Storyline, I can only input the URL and cannot attach the file itself. When I tried to insert it directly from my computer, it caused errors because the path would be lost if I changed the location or deleted the file from my computer. As a workaround, I started hosting the PDF on an external website and inserting the URL link within the trigger. However, currently, my client's server is blocking all external links for security reasons. How can I resolve this? Is it possible to attach a PDF within Storyline?
Yes, you can attach a PDF, either in the Resources tab, or via the Open URL/file trigger:
That pulls the attachment into Storyline. If you update the PDF, you do need to update the link/trigger to ensure it will publish with the most recent version.
