Getting data out of Storyline
Hi I have to build a module that contains 15 questions. Each question has 5 answers. The answers lead to a certain categorie. After filling out the 15 questions the idee is that the learners know which categorie is most connected to his personnal preferrences. I am building this course using variables.
Is there any way to track what choices are made? Can I export this data into an Excel file?
I have tried a few thing I found in older post here but nothing seems to work.
Thanks for your advice.

Als je een LMS gebruikt, wordt de data daarnaar toe weggeschreven. Afhankelijk van je LMS zijn er dan diverse 'report'-opties. Als je xAPI gebruikt, wordt de data weggeschreven naar je LRS en kun je daar alle data ophalen.
Als je noch een LMS noch een LRS gebruikt, dan zijn je opties wegschrijven als Google sheet data of naar een database. Voor Google sheet data staan aardig wat tutorials hier online, maar de beste methode is om gebruik te maken van een Google cloud functie.If you use an LMS, the data is written to it.

Just a thought, something to get you started. I assume that you have already set up your variables and are ready to export them to Excel. In this example, I have used the XLSX JavaScript library, which is utilized for reading, writing, and manipulating Excel files (including XLSX files) in JavaScript. Below, you'll find a short video demonstrating how Storyline variables are exported to a dynamically generated Excel worksheet using JavaScript. If this is what you are looking for, please let me know, and I'll provide the JavaScript code
Hi I have a similar question. Learners make a selection of buttons the click on one slide and the sequence of clicking and which buttons need to be exported to excel. Further down the elearning simple questions mc and essay are asked and they need to be exported as well. Can you send me a generic Javascript. How could i do this myself. Is there a Javascript support manual for storyline somewhere? Thanks in advance
I am not quite sure exactly what you are looking to do in your project. I suggest starting a new topic with clear instructions and a simple mockup (a basic Storyline design with sample questions) and explaining what kind of data you would like to export to Excel, similar to what was demonstrated in my video. Just for the record, there is no JavaScript support manual for Storyline in this specific scenario, as the code was custom-written by me.
