Can anyone please advice on how i could print out a certificate of completion on articulate rise? Many thanks Naeem

I spent some time playing with this, as well as digging in the developer tools and chrome on Phils solution and figured this out. This can be done in rise by adding a storyline slide into rise. The storyline file just triggers Javascript as a trigger. Here is the Javascript from Phils example https://codepen.io/khausauer/pen/JjPZKZa I used this as a base to recreate the functionality, changing the code slightly just to clean up and make it easier to read for this example. To create a PDF you'll need to add the MakePDF CDN to your HTML generated files, You want to add this in the story_html5.html file from your published file. If you added the slide to a rise file this file will be in COURSENAME.zip\content\assets\bt151019uRhOQ0X4\ (The BT151... part is likely different for each slide you add to a rise course. The the <head> and </head> will already be in there you just need to the the two script lines, just above the </head< <head>...<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/pdfmake/0.1.59/pdfmake.min.js" integrity="sha256-bX4TPrIvSJ7o/8O7HiB8WLSA6xz/45oHBHww/ErxGpc=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/pdfmake/0.1.59/vfs_fonts.js" integrity="sha256-UsYCHdwExTu9cZB+QgcOkNzUCTweXr5cNfRlAAtIlPY=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script></head> There is one more issue you will run into, which is adding images to your PDF. the MakePDF documentation says images need to be base64 encoded, which essentially turns an image into a series of 1000s of characters. it looks something like this: data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4RGJRXhpZgAATU0AKgAAAAgABwESAAMAAAABAAEAAAEaAAUAAAABAAAAYgEbAAUAAAABAAAAagEoAAMAAAABAAIAAAExAAIAAAAkAAAAcgEyAAIAAAAUAAAAlodpAAQAAAABAAAArAAAANgALcbAAAAnEAAtxsA... the problem here, is that storyline has a maximum character allowance in the JS panel. so to get around this you need to manually insert your encoded images into the JS file generated after publishing. this file can be found at Storyline output\story_content\user.js or if its a rise output COURSENAME.zip\content\assets\bt151019uRhOQ0X4\story_content\user.js This file will look something like this: function ExecuteScript(strId){ switch (strId) { case "6GIzzLQR94K": Script1(); break; }}function Script1(){ // Retrieve storyline player object from parent window var player = window.parent.GetPlayer(); // Retrieve the learners name from the learnerName variable var name = player.GetVar("learnerName"); // Retrieve the title of the project from projectTitle variable. var title = player.GetVar("projectTitle"); var results = player.GetVar("results"); var cpd = player.GetVar("cpd"); var certNo = player.GetVar("vCertificate_text"); // Get todays date in format dd/mm/yyyy var today = new Date(); var dd = today.getDate(); var mm = today.getMonth() + 1; //January is 0! var yyyy = today.getFullYear(); if (dd < 10) { dd = '0' + dd } if (mm < 10) { mm = '0' + mm } date = dd + '/' + mm + '/' + yyyy; // Define PDF output - See http://pdfmake.org/#/gettingstarted for information on creating a PDF document with pdfmake. var docDefinition = { // Set page size pageSize: 'A4', // Set document orientation pageOrientation: 'portrait', // Set page margins pageMargins: [0, 0, 0, 0], // Define main body of document content: [ // Include logo image (image is encoded as base64 string) // Include certificate text { text: 'THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED TO:', fontSize: 16, alignment: 'center', margin: [0, 320, 0, 15] },... (continued on) You'll need to add your images and background into here. you'll want to find the line that Says var docDefinition = { And add in your background images right below so it looks like: var docDefinition = { // Define document background background: [ { image: 'data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4RGJRXhpZgAATU0AKgAAAAgABwESAAMAAAABAAEAAAEaAAUAAAABAAAAYgEbAAUAAAABA ...... (Cut off because it's long) width: 595.28, height: 841.89 } ], After you save the files you should be good to go, just upload to host, or LMS and give it a test. If you are running into issues, use the Dev tools in chrome (F12) and look at the bottom right for Javascript errors, this will give you an idea of where the problem is. You can see a live demo of my storyline file here: http://kylehausauer.com/pdftest/story_html5.html I have also attached the .story i used when testing. If i haven't described something clear enough, let me know i'll try to clarify!

OMG! This is way beyond me. :-(

Since there are so many people asking for a step by step, I'd like to offer the instructions for what I did for my client. But first please accept this disclaimer: I'm not an expert in Storyline, Rise or anything, in fact I retired a couple of years ago. Last week my client, for whom I'd long ago created a PDF certificate in Storyline, hosted in Articulate Online, asked me if I could adapt it for Rise. Using Emiliano's instruction in this thread I was able to do so. I was surprised and delighted that it worked. But I can see why people would want a simple step by step. I'm sure when Phil Mayor does it, it'll be better than this, but if it helps until there's a 'native' Rise certificate, I'm happy to offer it. But I'm not offering any support or followup. There are people on this forum far better equipped to do that. I'm going back to my books and guitar! If Crystal or any Articulate Support people find anything wrong with my solution feel free to remove it. So here you have: a) a Word doc explaining the processb) a Storyline quiz with the certificate-printing mechanism, similar to what was shown on this threadc) a certificate in HTML with some dummy images I had a lot of help from people on the Articulate forum when I was an elearning person, so I hope this gives something back.

This is such a fundamental requirement. Can we please have this put on the list of jobs to do from the rise team asap.

Hi Naeem, Right now, there isn't a way to access a certificate of completion in Rise 360. Our team has a feature request logged for this capability and I'll make sure your voice gets added to the discussion. If I can help with anything else please reach out!

Eliliano's investigative work is spot on. The storyline file is embedded in Rise using the Storyline block, you must publish to review first

  Hey Phil, this all looks great and your example of the SL block collecting the username and saving to a PDF is what I need, however I think I am missing something, looking for some pointers here please.
  
  I have tried all of the suggestions here in this forum and tried each suggestion here but can't get the PDF to download. If I can get it to work, I will assist by posting updated steps here for others.
  
  Here are the latest steps of what I have tried:
  
  Took SL file (that Eliliano/Kyle posted with your JS in it) that on click of button executes and published to Review.
  
  Added that SL Review piece to a block in Rise.
  
  Published Rise to SCORM package.
  
  Opened the html file for the SL block added, and put in the two lines in the head for and put in the script for links to cloudflare as suggested.
  
  Repackaged the zip and posted in SCORMCloud.
  
  Tested however PDF not working.
  
  Any pointers from my steps that I may be getting wrong? I see others have used a webobject, and I tried that as well. I am unclear if using that is part of the solution instead?
  
  Thanks much for any help, I have tried all of the suggestions, just must be missing something.

    Hi Jeff
    
    The web object needs to be in there as this holds the files needed to generate the Certificate.
    
    I would look at Emeliano’s tutorial that is comprehensive and works.
    
    Look at the javascript console for errors it is typically a misspelled or missing variable.

Thanks everyone. I found the difference between what had worked in Storyline and what works in Rise. In Storyline we'd uploaded the certificate.html file and the PDFmake files to Articulate Online. In Rise, as per Emiliano's instructions, I referenced the PDFmake files on Cloudflare in the header of certificate.html. So there was only one file for the Storyline module to reference. Then recreated the web object. Uploaded to 360 Review then imported into the Rise module and it all works.

Thanks, Norman, I can only apologise I will get a tutorial done on this when I get some downtime.

In the meantime, I do think Emiliana and Norman have you covered.

Hi Mario!

While Rise 360 doesn't have a certificates feature, check out Rise.com!

It's an all-in-one online training system that includes the same course authoring as Rise 360, plus a place to track, manage, and analyze your training. It even includes certificates of completion!

Have a look around, and if you have any questions about it, you can reach the Rise team at sales@rise.com.

Hello, Shinead! While Rise 360 doesn't have a built-in certificate feature, check out this cool Storyline Block course certificate generator that Phil created! He may be able to help you create a similar one for your own course.

Has this functionality been added yet? I really need certificates of completion for a required course for a state we did in rise and the clients LMS does not have certificates so it would be needed in the rise course...

  Hi Autumn, generating Course Certificates isn't available in Rise 360, but we'll make sure to update this thread once we have made changes that can help.
  
  As a workaround, other users choose to add a certificate by using Google Forms or Google Slides, or even use Storyline. Please check out these creative ideas to add a Course Certificate:

Is this a possibility yet? We are using more Rise and the clients want certificates.
