GUIDE: How to Upload Storyline Content to the Web Using Amazon S3

Yes, I used the story.html file.

I tried this again with a different Storyline file with the same result so I'm sure I'm doing something wrong just not sure what!    I made the whole file public as shown in the directions, though I am getting an error here at the bottom - see screenshot.

Here's the link address:

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/laniewilliamsonprojects/Reference+Interview+with+a+5-year-old+-+Storyline+output/story.html

I figured it out (I think - it works now at least!).  The new settings for making the bucket public don't match what you have.  I went to "edit public access settings" and unchecked them all and now it works.

If I should have left any of these checked please let me know!  Thank you!

Hey Devlin! Thanks so much for this tutorial! I've just created my AWS account and first bucket with my first story. I want to ask you though, since I chose the AWS basic and am still within the free tier  (12 months), how would aws charge me after this? In general, how or what are the costs for storyline objects in AWS or google cloud? 

Thanks and looking forward on your insight on this. 

In general, AWS charges are based on outgoing data. Pricing also depends on the region(s) where your storage buckets are located. See here for info.

Thanks for this super helpful post, Devlin! Do you know if S3 could enable any sort of analytics collection? Or would we still need to the learning object either embedded in an LMS or have an LRS set up in order to get data? Thanks!

Thank you for this tutorial. It works great!

Is there any way to restrict access to enrolled students without making the bucket public. The url to the  story.html file in S3 file can be freely copied and pasted and the Storyline course can be accessed. I tried using  bucket  policies using http referrer and ip addrress restriction but get an error similar to Lannie's above ("This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below." I hope somebody can show the way with these bucket policies. Not having much progress with S3 documentation or forums.

When i export with Rise i do not have a story.html file. Only Index.html and goodby.html

Cannot figure out how to get it running in my s3. Any suggestions?

Thank you in advanced

Thank you Devlin for posting this guide - really helpful and saved me HOURS of working out how to do this! Also, thank you to Lanie for spotting the changes in the public settings - that would have thwarted my efforts for sure!
