Getting localstorage key?
Is it possible to access the localStorage key used by a Storyline project when it's published to the web?
On the last slide, I want to clear the localStorage for that lesson so that the next student using the same device isn't prompted to resume the course.
Additionally, is it possible to use that key within the slides? For example, if I create my own localStorage key and it matches a variable, the lesson would continue from where it left off. Otherwise, it would start from the beginning.
As far as I know there is no way to get this key with Javascript, not even via the undocumented DS interface
therefore you have to insert the key into the course manually or through a small (python) script
extract the "resume key" from "html5/data/js/data.js"
search for
- "resume":{"id":"
add one line to "story.html"
now you can use
window.localStorageKey
to access the localStorage with your JavaScript
IMPORTANT: On every publish a new key is generated, so you have to redo all steps

Thank you! I figured out where the key is on my own but I didn't know that you can just add that to story.html.
