Calling Storyline Variables in Rise
I am creating a course in Rise 360 which includes embedded Storyline 360 interactive resources.
Learners will be asked to input various elements in the Storyline resources (e.g. slider input, text input).
I would like to capture those variables and use later in the Rise course - either in a separate Storyline resource or by embedding the same resource again.
However, the variables reset to default when the learner moves on from the Rise lesson.
The Storyline resource also resets navigation to 'initial state' rather than 'saved state' when revisiting despite the setting being changed before publishing in Storyline.
Is what I am trying to achieve possible with a Rise/Storyline combination?
Thanks
Here is a certificate as a storyline block inside Rise https://360.articulate.com/review/content/83005bc5-497c-4ec6-9fcb-16b51c4ad2b2/review
Trully a HERO! Can you please share the Storyline template or steps?
Thank you!
Phil, were you able to share your files and instructions so we can create our own certificate?
Awesome job!
I have a webinar on here on the 24th June to show how to generate a pdf download.
Hi Phil, is there a recording of the webinar? Thanks for the expertise here!
I just finished a webinar for Articulate on generating a PDF not a certificate but uses same method. I am going to pull together a certificate to attach to the downloads as well.
Can you share a link to the webinar? I'm not having any luck finding it.
Hi Craig,
Rise doesn't have the ability to access variables from Storyline and as you've discovered, one Storyline block can't pass information to another Storyline block.
Is the issue you describe whereby the Storyline block resets to 'initial state' on revisiting occurring when you revist the first instance of the Storyline block or when you try to access a second instance (duplicate) of the same block? I'd expect the first instance to honour your settings but for the second instance to behave as a separate entity.
Hi Craig,
As David mentioned, there isn't a method to use the Storyline variables in your Rise 360 course, as the latter doesn't have a variables feature.
For the revisit, the Storyline block progress isn't saved. So it will always start from the beginning when revisiting the block inside your Rise 360 course.
Hi Ashley,
Based on the responses above, plus elsewhere on the forum, and what I understand of the Storyline Block, it would seems that the following actions would be possible;
- Create a Storyline module for the purpose of getting learner's name and creating a completion certificate (this can be pdf, html, or simple print screen option).
- Include the Storyline module at the end of the Rise Course, using the Storyline Block, in order to generate a completion certificate.
Please confirm my assumptions or direct me eleswhere for more info. I'd hate to spend time creating something that would not work due to the limitations of the current Storyline or Rise.
Thank you,
Dan
Wow, that's a really cool certificate generator, Phil! Thanks so much for sharing that with the community. 😁
Yes please share :-)
This is very impressive! I'd like the source file as well if you're willing to share :)
Hi Phil,
I would like to add my name to the request list for the source file. I've been trying to figure out how to generate a certificate from a course for ages and have been unsuccessful because I can't write html code.
Please?
Hi Phil,
I wouls also be very interested in receiving the source file.
Thanks for sharing.
