To take advantage of this update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help!

Hello Dana,
Yes, that is the correct behavior. The closed captions will appear as a .vtt file when you publish your course to video. See this article for more information:

Let me know if you have any questions!
