How to import a SCORM file into Articulate Storyline?

Not to pile on to a 6+ year-old thread (points to Kelly and other @ Articulate for persistence in keeping up with the comments), but there's a very simple reason that some of us might be asking one of the questions in here.

For me, it has nothing to do with stealing IP or unwinding other people's work. It has to do with reusing my own work.

SCORM files prevent vendor lock-in at the LMS level... if I go with Docebo today and decide in 2 years that I want to move to Lessonly, easy peasy.

But, what if I go with EasyGenerator today and want to switch to Articulate in a year? Or vice versa?

It seems like any content I've created on that tool will be stuck in the final version from that tool. If I want to switch to a different content authoring tool and have a need to change/update a course I've already published (this is the important distinction), I'm out of luck and would have to rebuild it in entirety on the new platform.

I recognize that every vendor has its secret sauce and differentiated features that make it unique. But that's why standards like SCORM exist. To baseline capabilities that should enable interoperability across systems.

The anecdote here is more like Rich Text Format than decompiling video games. I write a book with formatting in Microsoft Word. It's my words, my narrative, my IP. My book has chapters, formatting, all of those great things that RTF might support.

My publisher dumps MSFT and moves us over to Google Apps. I take my RTF files, load them into Google Drive and retain the ability to edit my own content. Life goes on.

There are probably technical limitations to how SCORM is written which don't allow for "who owns the IP" (as pointed out in a previous comment). Just wanted to qualify a practical use case for being able to edit SCORM files that I'm faced with as I evaluate content creation tools like Articulate Rise.
