Exporting all captions
I have created a Storyline360 file, and each slide has its own audio and closed captioning created within Articulate. I can export the closed captions for individuals slides but can I export all captions for the whole file?
Also when I publish to video the captions don't appear to come with it, and I then need to attach a caption file?
I am VERY new to this, and hope some can help.

I will also add my vote to the feature of exporting all captions from Storyline. It is a lot of work doing it one by one, so I really would like this feature in Storyline.

This would save my team an immense amount of time since we, too, have to manually update the caption file and transcript file. The ability to export all captions into one file for revisions then importing back into SL would be life changing. PLEASE prioritize this feature!!
Hi Naomi & Crystal!
Thanks for sharing the feedback on the type of functionality you'd like to see in Storyline!
I've included both of you in the feature report being tracked so you can be notified as soon as we have updates to share!

Thank you, Steven! I see that exporting captions into a single file has been a long requested feature. When can we see this added to the product roadmap?
Hello Crystal!
I'm happy to chime in! Though I cannot give a timeline because of factors like complexity, breadth, and engineering's current workload, we can commit to keeping this post open so we can let you know if the feature is available. You will be among the first to know!

Thank you team for the great work...
Please add my vote too to include this crucial feature of exporting the closed captions for the whole project in one file, as this will allow us to easily translate to different languages.
Hi Stephanie and wasim,
Thanks so much for sharing what you'd like to see in Storyline 360. I've added your voices to the existing report. We’ll update this discussion in the future with any news so that you are in the loop!
Hope that you both have a great start to Monday!

Hi, I would also love to see this feature to export all closed captions for the entire project as it would save tons of time for localization. Please add my vote as well.

Hello, after 3 years from the first request I still ask to export / import all srt (but also mp3 and images) at one time: something like links to update.
Opening the file story as a zip I can see all the objects, but they use weird different names and it seems that the software changes those names: if only it would possible to keep the original file name so to change them directly in the zip file!
