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...
I'm wondering if using a javascript trigger would make it possible to use a number variable to set the value of a text variable?
I'm not super familiar with using javascript in storyline but I plan to look into this. The basics would seem to be: Get the current value of the number variable, and update the text variable (i.e., survey question text entry variable) with the number value.
Hi Brian, I just wanted to let you know I tested the 'How Many' survey question and it worked! I'm able to see colleagues' answers (Numeric and Text) in our LMS. I've attached screenshots of how I set it up.
Short Survey for Text EntryHow Many for Numeric Entry
This is good to know, thank you for sharing your testing here, along with your detailed notes, I'm sure this will be helpful for many the community.
Hi Brian,
Really appreciate you looking into this for me. Glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this, although I was hoping it was me doing something wrong.
I will look into Javascript although I'm not that familiar myself. I've replaced the slide with a How Many interaction instead, I'm not expecting it to work but will give it a shot.
