Retrieve LMS User Name as Variable
I know you can have a user fill in a text box with their name and then later use that variable for personalization. What we would like to do is programmatically retrieve the user name from the LMS....
Articulate Online uses xAPI not SCORM. Getting the username through the AO implementation is a little more challenging. You can grab a username from AO using DOM in JavaScript to grab the username displayed on the screen. However, this is rarely usable in a Firstname Lastname format. Depending on what you're trying to do, you may be out of luck.
Consider engaging support with a request. Maybe there's something in AO that you can employ that I'm not aware of.
