Reporting number variable to LMS
Hi everyone, I'm trying to track a number variable in the LMS using the Short Answer workaround. As it's a number, I've tried using the How Many option instead, but it doesn't seem to be workin...
Hello Joe - you really do need to use the Short Answer survey question type for this method to work.
The process is a little backward, but once you figure it out it makes sense. Let me know if you'd like to connect and work through the details.
Hi Brian - I wonder if you can help. I'm trying to add a Number Variable to the Short Answer Survey, but the variable doesn't appear in the Trigger Wizard. I was able to add a Text Variable without any trouble. Not sure what I'm missing here.
"Set ActivistScoreEntry to variable ActivstSCORE (Number) When the timeline starts on this slide"
Unfortunately I'm able to replicate the issue you're describing... it appears that it is currently impossible to use a number variable to set the value of a text variable, which is surprising to me.
I don't feel like it has always been this way, and that I have successfully done this in the past, but I very possibly could be wrong about that.
