Difference between launcher.html and story.html

Hi everyone,

I'm curious to know the difference between those two files and their use?

  • Hi Luc,

    The launcher.html file is what will be used to launch your course from within your LMS if you have chosen the "launch in new window" as a part of the options here.Otherwise, the story.html file is the main launch file for web or LMS.

    Hope that helps!

      @ashley, How does the index_lms.html differ from the story.html?  My company is using Storyline360 and I am attempting to SCORM Validate a graded exam for use within the ALMS.

      I know that the launcher.html file has some play in 508 'standards' too.

        Hello Anthony, 

        Happy to step in! 

        The index_lms.html file is a file that is used by an LMS to open a published Storyline 360 course. The story.html file on the other hand is something a webserver would use to launch the course on a browser. If your LMS doesn't require a particular launch file, then you may be able to use the story.html file but I'd verify this with your LMS support team.
