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....

Hi,
I have been actually able to do that now in HTML5 too. I have used the same javascript code to fetch student name from LMS and current date.
The only difference is I have not used the code in the result slide where the certificate will appear. I have used the code at the very first slide of my course and stored them in Storyline variables. In the certificate popup in result slide, I have just used those 2 Storyline variables.
It worked in IOS 7 that I'm testing!

Hi Tanmay,
That's a pretty cool workaround, would you be willing to share a sample file of how you did that? Thanks a ton!
