I was wondering if anyone new a way to display a storline project on a sharepoint site.

Hey, Ryan. You can easily display your Storyline content if you're using SharePoint Online. Perform these steps in order to display the content: If you haven't already done so, publish your Storyline content to Web. 1. Go to your document storage. 2. Create a folder for your course. Essentially, you're recreating the folder hierarchy exported from your story content, and the hierarchy should match exactly. 3. Open the folder you created. 4. Upload those few files into that folder. 5. Create a new folder entitled story_content. You can only upload 100 files at a time, so it's good to jot down the last file you uploaded to reference in the next batch. 6. Open story_content and upload all those files. 7. Create a slides folder and upload those files into it. 8. Go back to your main folder. Next Steps SharePoint Online automatically downloads .html files; therefore, you need to change the story.html file to story.aspx in order to play your content. 1. Open the story.html file in a simple content editor, such as Notepad or Adobe Dreamweaver. 2. Save the files as story.aspx. Final Steps 1. Upload story.aspx to your SharePoint course folder. 2. Test your work by clicking on the story.aspx file. It should launch the course seamlessly. Check out this simple screencast I created (attached) that demonstrates the process.

Hi All, I've been able to load SL outputs onto our SharePoint 2010 environment just fine using the techniques described earlier in this thread, however, my company is moving to SharePoint 2013 Online and does not wish to allow the browser to render HTML files from SharePoint for security reasons. A workaround from our IT department was to "convert the story.html file to .aspx." Has anyone had any experience with this? I thought I would post here since it is SharePoint-related.

Ryan, I use SL all the time on SharePoint. Like Peter said, all I've done is create a folder in SP and view it in Explorer View. Then drag the published content from SL into the folder. Set up permissions in SP as desired. You launch the training from the story.html file. Once you launch the training you can copy the URL of the player and email that to learners.

I was able to get Storyline files to play by using the "convert the story.html file to story.aspx." Works like a charm and I hate that it was so easy.

We've also used the HTML IFRAME tag for embedding Articulate content, hosted on another web site, into a SharePoint site by editing the HTML for a SharePoint page.

Can someone instruct me on the specific files you need to load from Storyline to Sharepoint? WIth Captivate you only need two - the HTML file and the SWF file.

I went to an elearning conference yesterday and downloaded the 30 day free trial of Storyline. We would love to use it instead of captivate but are afraid of the number of files that need to be loaded to Sharepoint.

Thanks

It is a lot of files but I'm not sure why that is a concern. Just drag the whole output folder into a SharePoint folder and you're done. Instead of one huge SWF file like Captivate makes you have a bunch of smaller files in folders.

Is there any way to package the files together to reduce the size? Or any other option?

Also, we tried to load all the folders and files to sharepoint and it told us only 100 files so we had to load them in groups.

Very new to this and we are trying to decide if we should purchase it as a company.

Brett - would you have time to discuss loading it tomorrow on the phone?

Amy, my guess is that your SharePoint administrator may have set a limit to the number of files that can be uploaded at once. I'm certainly no SharePoint expert but I'd check with your administrator to check.

Other than that I don't really have any other info; we routinely publish SL content, create a folder in a SharePoint library, change the view to Explorer view, then drag and drop the published files and folders into the SP folder. Use the story.html file to launch the course.

Brett - I'm not having any issues with accessing my files on SharePoint, but I am being told users are running into the GCOD (Grey Circle of Death) at random times. I'm seeing that this may have something to do with Flash memory, but I'm unsure how to fix it. Have you had any issues/experience with this?

Hi Erika,

Are you refering to the spinning loader that appears when you first launch a course? I have not had any special issues with that in SharePoint. I believe SL tries to load the first few slides at the beginning so if those are particularly heavy slides e.g., with video/audio, it may take a bit longer to load. I've not heard or seen this loader (GCOD?) appear in the middle of a presentation. Can you clarify when you users are having issues and what they are seeing?

Hi Erika,

You mentioned the Flash memory - have you tried to update the Flash player associated with your browser to see if that helps with loading? You can upgrade Adobe Flash Player here:
