Hi Ryan,
You might be able to use Articulate published content with your Sharepoint server, but it's not something we'd be able to support. You'll need to switch to "Explorer View" in Sharepoint before uploading your published output as explained in this older forum post. Perhaps someone else has more recent experience using Sharepoint with Storyline who may be able to offer you more help. Good luck!

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.

3 year old post, but I have the same issue. I think I figured out the problem. When bulk importing into sharepoint, it does not automatically check in the files. I had to check them ALL in. Once I did this, my users could view the training videos.

Hmm, I don't know if our implementation of SP is set up in some special way (I don't think so) but I've never had any trouble loading Articulate Presenter or Storyline by dragging the output files to a SP folder. Are you publishing for Web? And make sure you are dragging all 4 items (story_content folder, meta.xml, story.html file, and the story.swf) into the same folder in SP. And then launching from the story.html file.

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.

Thank you for your support.. I am still not able to add the story.swf as I can't view it .. It appears as a blank page. Gerry? is there code that you can provide to show me how this is done?
Thanks.

Hi!
I no longer have access to our SharePoint sites as I moved on.
However, here's a thread that gives plenty of examples: http://community.articulate.com/forums/p/13227/80646.aspx#80646
Also, be sure that you are referencing story.html and not story.swf.

I came across this thread hoping that it would help -- I had the same question as the original poster.
I have set everything up exactly as you've suggested. When I open the story.html page, however, the player does not launch. Instead, my browser prompts me to save the file. I have the same results using numerous browsers and multiple computers. I can confirm that I have published for Web and that I have dragged all folders/files in Explorer view to a SharePoint site that I'm the owner of.
Is there anything in the publishing procedure that I'm missing?

Bill,
You can search for the ".swf" Story file, after you have uploaded the files, and it should display properly for you. I just had the same issue and this worked! You will just copy the link and send it to whoever you wish to view it.

You saved my life! SharePoint 2013 manages html files in a distinct way for security reasons but they are more permisible with flash files, while this has not any sense you found a great solution
Thanks so much!

^ Megan's solution worked for me. The SharePoint URL ends with story.swf
