Saving Rise Source Files to Local Hard Drive
Hi
Currently it does not seem possible to save the Rise source files to one's local machine. As we plan do develop some modules in Rise for clients, we would need to send them the source files if they would like to modify the modules themselves at a later stage.
I understand that there may be sharing of Rise files between accounts for collaborative work in the near future, is there a timeframe for rollout on this?
Do you know if or how source files can be saved, or when this may be implemented?

Hi Melanie,
You can share a copy of a Rise course using the "Send a copy" feature.
We have shared the discussion here on downloading source files with our team as a feature request, and we'll keep folks posted if that makes the roadmap!

Will the ability to re-upload the source files to Rise (by the same or different user) be included in the feature request?
Hi Suzanne,
Yes, we shared the general consensus of why folks are looking for this particular feature - and then we leave it up to our product team to figure out how to best accomplish this and meet the needs of the majority of users.
We do get lots of requests and ideas here in the forums, so in case you're wondering, here's how we manage all of the ideas we receive!

It seems as though an alternate solution would be to allow a clients/user to create a "ghost" account without an actual paid 360 subscription, then the source file could be shared with that account. The client/user could then have access to the source files at any time and could activate their "ghost" account to make edits.
This sounds like a great sales conversion approach for the Articulate Sales team as well.
- Warm lead generation
- Targeted advertising
- Clients more likely to sign up on their own
I'm sure there are a few other benefits this approach might provide as well.
(That account would need to be available indefinitely)
Thanks Cory, love that you're keeping the conversation going and sharing fresh ideas. I'll pass it along to our team. 😀

As a company that likes to ensure the safety and security of the training it creates, it feels like a misstep to rely on a full web integration product. I believe it would be helpful to create a package file of the rise course so that it could be removed from the web version and stored on locally behind our company's firewall. Any time changes should be made we could re-upload the file to rise and make are changes.
It would be great to set this functionality added.

Thanks Steve for that feedback and I can certainly pass it along. As a company, we're also committed to safety and security, take a look at our Trust center documentation here.

I work for a Healthcare company that is really tight with IT security and we would need to be able to definitely need to load or store the files on our company's servers. If it would be possible to at least create a package to be saved locally and then upload if needed to use RISE for changes. My team has multiple accounts with 360 so that is not the issue, It is being able to secure the files locally that would be our IT security's preferences.

Lynn did you get any further detail on this question. I too work for a company that is really tight on IT security and would only allow packages to be stored on company servers.
Thanks for sharing those details and use-case Lynn.
I submitted a feature request on your behalf.

This seems to be along the same lines as the issue I have come across. I have designed a RISE course for the UK bases of our company and there has been a request from our Spanish bases to now mirror the course at their side but they require access for translation etc.
Am I correct in saying the only way they would be able to make the necessary amendments from their end would be for someone at that side to have an Articulate 360 subscription?
