Getting student name from the LMS and using it in Articulate
In the LMS we are about to use, we can get the student name since the SCORM runtime variable for it is "cmi.core.student_name". However, how do I get it as a variable in Articulate at run time?

for xAPI it is not possible with scormdriver.js (there is no connection from course to LMS)
have a look in this video

the user name (if there is one) is encoded in the start url of the course
the details dependes on the LMS you use - probably for security reasons there is no name transmitted at all, but only a anonymous ID
