Hello, Is it possible to embed Storyline 360 (try interactions) that are hosted locally and only accessible on an intranet? I have tried the URL/EMBED and I am receiving the following error "Please enter a valid URL or iframe or make it public" Does Rise support local content to be embedded that is on an intranet site, or does it have to be hosted on a 3rd party site or something accessible from outside of the intranet? I plan to download the project and store it on the intranet site so the content would be accessible to internal participants only. I appreciate your help.

RE IS A SOLUTION AND WORK AROUND! My brilliant colleague and I have devised this and it works perfectly. To create intranet links in Rise: Make a separate Storyline project. Don't make a slide as it won't work (haven't tested it with a scene though.) Then in the slide, add your intranet hyperlink. Ensure the window opens to a New Window (not to open inside Rise or it won't work). Add it as a Storyline block in Rise. Amazing. So happy we now can use Rise to host our company's intranet links. Cheers!

I think this is a workable solution for this issue! It's very simple, just copy and paste, but it's got a few steps you need to complete. Add an iFrame with a target that works in rise, and that you can remember! It can be any website. Export your course, and unzip it. Find index.html in your course (either in the root directory for xapi or inside the scormcontent folder for SCORM). Open it with a text editor like Brackets and look for window.courseData = You will find a whole bunch of letters and numbers inside some quote marks. You want to copy everything within those quote marks. You will need to decode this course content. It's encoded as base64, so we copy and paste it into https://www.base64decode.org/ to make it human-readable. In the decoded text, search for your iframe code, and point the src tags at your new file, this can be something you've added in to the course folder or an intranet page. Please note, though, there are two src tags for each embed item. Don't forget to change both! Next, we use https://www.base64encode.org/ to re-encode the course content. In your text editor, paste the new version in between the quote marks. Zip your course up, and you're good to go. If you try to preview the course locally by opening index.html in a browser, you probably won't see anything in the iframe because most browsers prevent local files loading in iframes. Toss it on scormcloud or test it in your LMS/LRS and you'll see your iframe working. If you want to play around with the code a little more, once it's been decoded you can use https://unminify.com/ to make it a bit easier to read. There are a few things you can tweak in here.

Love how some of these feature requests sit in there for years. Being able to add intranet links that link to content that cannot be public is critical. Articulate really needs to prioritize for their corporate customers.

I am just checking if anyone has been able to embed local content from their internal website in to rise. I can embed anything that is "public" but anything on an internal site I am unable to. If this is possible, I appreciate any help you may be able to provide. Thanks!

Hi Gerry, Rise is verifying the URL when you use the URL/Embed option. If Rise can't see the URL (because it's only accessible from a private network) it's not able to verify it and won't embed it. What you're describing sounds like a neat idea though - so you're always welcome to submit the Feature request here in addition to sharing here in ELH. Thanks!

  Is it necessary for either application (Rise, Storyline, etc) to "verify" the URL?? It just seems as if this could be an easy fix and not a "new feature" (I'm not a developer, but seems as if someone could uncheck the "Verify" box somewhere in the code). Embedding an intranet URL should not require the use of 3 separate applications (Rise, Storyline, and Review). This has been a frustrating experience as I am not as proficient in Storyline, as I am with Presenter and Rise.
  
  Additional support would be super appreciated.

Thank you for the response Ashley. I have submitted the request as you recommended. It seems like it should be a very easy implementation (maybe have a toggle to verify or not verify links).

Thank you again, and I hope to see it implemented in the future :)

Completely agree Justin. I just submitted another feature request on this one as my team and I need to operate within our corporate network.

Thank you Camilla for posting the workaround!
