Re-upload SCORM Package

Good Afternoon,

Is there a way to re-upload a Storyline SCORM object to my LMS (Canvas) without having to upload and publish a whole new package?  Sometimes, you may want to make a change, etc. to an activity but you have to publish and upload a whole new activity. Is there an easier way? I have a welcome activity in over 100 courses and would have to go to each course to make the correction so I'm crossing my fingers there is an easier way. Thank you all for your time and help.

    My experience on Saba, SumTotal, Absorb, Pathlore, Docent, and SCORM Cloud is you are uploading the entire ZIPped SCORM package every time, no matter if you change one item or 50. Sorry...

  • Thank you Joseph, I appreciate you taking the time to respond.  Have a beautiful day!

  • there is no way to update parts of a storyline course without publish the whole course

  • As Canvas LMS has a modular setup with pages and modules...why not split your course into pieces ? Offcourse if you already have 100+ courses online...that for sure is no fun...because you have to split all and reupload it. And Canvas aint the funniest LMS to work with... if you have these changes more often...rethink your course setup and split it.

    Also you might have the same issue as Francesco in this post...

    Whenever you reupload the course(s) to Canvas... all users progress will be reset. Not sure whether you use a restricted, locked or free player...but it really might be wise to think about setup. What parts will seldom or never change...make them separate scorms.. and the parts that change every year... make Canvas pages or modules for it. If Storyline and Scorm...test progress and resume status when reuploading...
