Can You Report Out On Button Use?
My team is having a blast learning how to use Storyline and all its features. We were successfully able to create courses that provide our learners with a "test out" option.
Leadership now wants to run analytics on this feature. They would like to know how many people are taking the "test out" option vs. completing the full course. The questions in the "test out" option are the same as in the "final test" therefore there is no way to know using the test questions. This is also not a feature that our LMS provides.
Is there a way to report "button" use to the LMS?

Yes - if you are publishing to xAPI and your LMS can manage that output.
Yes, we are publishing using xAPI. However, I haven't figured out how to get articulate to report on the use of a single button.
Here is an example:
Then it's normally reported to LMS like this:
I suggest using a strong naming convention to make it easy to identify when more statements are reported. For example, name your button as "Take Course Button" so that the LMS will read it as "User000 Experienced Take Course Button," indicating that the user has clicked this button.Thank you for this. I've created the triggers as you suggested.
However, when we ran our typical report in our LMS it did not pick up any of these interactions and only showed us the test responses. We've submitted a ticket with Workday, our LMS, to see what we are missing.
Hey, you could easily connect this module to Google Analytics and create events to track how each of your buttons is performing. Follow this simple tutorial, the best part is that it links Google Analytics dynamically, so you won't need to add this code each time you replubish. This option won't send the data to the LMS (you will see this from your GA account), but works well for sending the data from the LMS.
google analystics is for eTraining not a good option - every add blocker will block tracking complete
