How to import a SCORM file into Articulate Storyline?
This topic is quite hilarious. It's like people asking why they can't import generated video into videoediting program to edit it, or why can't they drag and drop bought game into Unreal Engine app to edit it. This reminds me of one of the best questions clients can ask - Why you can't turn that guy on the foto so his back is visible :D
You don't and never will have option to import published project back into storyline. Period. There's simple no point in asking it, you only need to have a common sense WHY this won't happen. Ready product and source files are two different things in EVERY desigining work. And that's perfect, because, you know... you all want to steal someone's intellectual property and change it. Just start to ASK your developer to provide source files at the end of the work. Or pay for it ;)
However, there are two fine questions in this topic.
Same question here. If I get a SCORM file from a vendor and just need to add our intro slide, is that possible?
For example, I have a 2 SCORM packages, 1 is how to cook pasta, and 2 is how to make a sangria ..Say, I want to create a storyline project adding these two packages AS IS, with no modification whatsoever to any of them. Is this possible with the current 32 bit storyline360?
They seem very different, but are asking for the same thing. This can be done without using Storyline and you only need to basic understand what is SCORM package. That's a PACKAGE of some FILES that are meant to be a TRAINING. Inside the SCORM package, there can be multiple scorm packages arranged as one big SCORM package, with some navigation etc. That's how this thing started - simple .html pages arranged by SCORM protocol to communicate with each other and LMS.
So, sangria+pasta can add to one new scorm package, you just need to compile it on your own.
Also, random course from a vendor, which needs only intro in the begining, can also be two separate scorm packages combined into one.

I will, however, not provide any further tips - that's some more advanced techniques and need certain knowledge in javascript in order to execute that correctly. You can however get your company IT/Programming guy to make it happen. Or find someone on the market, who will do this job for you.
