How to import a SCORM file into Articulate Storyline?

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to Storyline and excited to learn from everyone in this community. I have a question about published files:

Is it possible to turn published Storyline web content back into a Storyline editable file?

Thanks for insights! -Amy

Hi team, i just got my license for Articulate and am exploring the tool. A co-worker previously created a training using Rise, the web version. This was then exported as a SCORM package and published to LMS. WHere can i find the .story file on RIse, so i can import it into Storyline and update?

I don't know if anyone's still following this thread, but I wonder if someone can help?  I'm a newbie and can't understand why you wouldn't be able to import a SCORM zipped folder back into Storyline or Review 360.  How else would you be able to edit existing courses that have already been published to your LMS?  Am I missing something?

Same question here. If I get a SCORM file from a vendor and just need to add our intro slide, is that possible?

Hi Jeanelle, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes. 😊

We recommend adding slides directly in the .story project file and re-publishing. You have a couple of options:

• If you have Storyline and the vendor can send you the .story file, you can add it yourself and then republish.
• You can send the information needed for an introduction slide directly to the vendor to include it in the SCORM Package sent to you.

Hello, Buildbase Training, I wonder about the same thing. I have what I think is a NEW question, or needs some clarity.

What if I don't want to edit the course. I just want to import the SCORM packaged file as is and then publish it online so other employees can take the course who may not have access to the LMS. Is that possible? If it helps one of the creators used ARTICULATE to create this SCORM packaged file. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi ToriShana,

If the published output is a SCORM Package, you could upload this .zip file to another LMS  environment if needed.

If you're wanting to host the content on a web server for more employee access, the .story file will need to be re-published for the web:

Storyline 360: Publishing and Sharing Content

We do not support modifying the published output, but someone in the community may be able to help.

I'm keen to the know the answer to this too (as per Buildbase Training recent query). Can I upload Scorm files back into Articulate? If not, do I have to have the .story files to make this happen. I'm pretty new to this, so clarity would be helpful as some of the posts on this chain are old now.

Hi Peggy,

No, you cannot upload SCORM files into Storyline. As Lauren shared above just a few days ago, the published output folder doesn't include the source file.

Yes, you need the .story files. There is no way to edit a Storyline course without the .story file. 

I hope this clarifies what has been previously shared here.

HI,

This is a very interesting thread yet I think the question has not been understood, or maybe I am misunderstanding myself ..:o)

The idea is to add an existing content from a SCORM package and not reverse engineering it.

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?

if not, is this something we can expect to come along soon?

This is a great opportunity of integration which would make storyline stand out from the competition: the capability to imbedding any SCORM standard packages into a storyline project.

YAY ..
