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,
We are trying to retrieve two identifiers (numerical IDs) from the LMS to appear at the top of our course. Is there a way to do this with javascript and to appear in HTML5 output of the course when launched from our LMS? Our LMS is CECity. Any help would be appreciated...I don't know a lot about javascript, but this string seems to indicate that this is possible with names from the LMS, so I'm assuming other information can be pulled into the course as well. Thanks!
