Can you import a RISE 360 course into Storyline 360?

There are a lot of discussions about moving at storyline 360 slide into Rise 360, but I'm not seeing anything about this way.

I have a flashcard course I made in Rise that I wanted to bring into storyline.

  • Hi, David.

    Thank you for reaching out!

    You can import Rise 360 courses into Storyline 360 as web objects. You can read more about it in the FAQ, but here's the answer to your question:

    Can Rise 360 courses be imported into Storyline 360?
    First, export your Rise 360 course as a web package and extract the zip file on your local computer. Then, add the extracted folder (that contains the Rise 360 index.html file) to your Storyline 360 project as a web object. See this user guide to learn more about web objects:

      Is the feature still possible? If so, once the Rise 360 course is exported as a web package will a log in and password still needed for Rise 360? Can the exported package be built into a Storyline 360 e-Learning module and perform correctly within an LMS?

  • Hi Jahon,

    Great questions! I understand you would like to know if adding a Rise course as a web object is still a feature in Storyline 360, if the inserted object will need a password, and if web objects perform correctly in an LMS. I would be happy to get you some information on these questions!

    First, adding a web object is still a feature in Storyline 360 and is a powerful way to embed web-based resources into your Storyline 360 courses. Here are some resources for Adding Web Objects and Editing Web Objects.

    Next, if the web object is saved to your local drive a password will not be necessary to access the Rise content. If your web content is located on the internet or an intranet, learners will need the proper security permissions to access it. Here is some more information about that.

    For your last question, can you give me a little more information on what you mean by "correctly"? If you mean will the web object be viewable in a course hosted on an LMS the answer is yes.

    Thanks for reaching out!

      Hi Christopher, 

      Happy to help!

      Can I ask which part of the process you are having difficulties with so we can assist you? If you're following Maria's instructions, you'll first need to upload your published Rise 360 course to a web server. You can also use Amazon S3 to host your course as an alternative if you don't have access to a web server for hosting. 

      Once you've uploaded the course to a web server, take the link to access the index.html file of the Rise 360 course and add it as a web object in Storyline 360. 

      You'll see your Rise 360 course load as a web object after you publish the Storyline 360 project.

        Hi Jose, it looks like JohnMorgan said there's an option to pull a web object that's saved to your hard drive. How do you import this if it's only on the hard drive? I do not see the option when I browse for the .zip or extracted files.

  • Hi there!

    This information is very helpful! However, I wanted to test this myself, and I am stuck... 

    So what I did:

    1. I go to my Rise Course and click on Publish and then I click on Web
    2. The ZIP file is downloaded and I save it to my computer
    3. I go to my project in Storyline and open Web object
    4. I click on the folder icon to go to the ZIP file, but this is not shown.

    Which link do I need to input? 

    Could you please help me? 

    Best regards

      Hi Camille,

      You'll need first to upload your Rise 360 course that's been published to web to a web server. This is the missing procedure in the steps you shared. Once you've uploaded your Rise 360 course to a web server, it will create a link to access the index.html file of the published output directly. This is the link you can use to add the course as a web object in Storyline 360. 

      If you don't have access to a web server, please contact your IT team so they can create one for you. You can also use Amazon S3 to host your course using a web server is not an option.
