Using JavaScript tp Retrieve user's name from Docebo LMS when publishing to xAPI
I am using Storyline 360, and I want to run a javascript to automatically retrieve the user's name from the LMS (Docebo) and save it to a variable.
I am able to do this successfully when published...
>According to ChatGPT, it is most likely a limitation with Articulate.
NO - this is a limitation of xAPI (queries are only possible to the LRS, not the LMS)
for xAPI it is not possible with scormdriver.js (there is no connection from course to LMS)
have a look in this video

the user name (if there is one) is encoded in the start url of the course
the details dependes on the LMS you use - probably for security reasons there is no name transmitted at all, but only a anonymous ID
