When restarting the program, always resume. Where are the variables saved?

Hi

When restarting the program, always resume. Where are the variables saved? Where is the file saved and with what name and extension?

  • if your are on an LMS, the data are stored there

    if you are on a normal webserver, they are stored in Local Storage of the browser (like cookies)

      Hi thanks .How to view the contents of a cookie in the Chrome browser?
      I would like to see the variables stored in the program with the storyline in the form of  always resume.
      I have taken the web output from Storyline and am using it on my computer.

      I want see "a" variable in file stored in below project.

       

  • -> F12/Application/Storage/Local Storage/...

    the format of this string is (of course) not documented, so it will not be easy

    the javascript en-/decoding you find in <publish folder>/html5/lib/scripts/bootstrapper.min.js

    with some console.log commands and some time analysis could surely find out the format

      Hi and thanks, I'm confused. We have saved the variable "a" with value 10. How to view this in the save location when always resume?

  • Local storage can be overwritten by any web app it is not reliable

      Hi,Is there a way to save the variables storyline project in an Excel or csv file on the computer(local storage )?

  • why do you need the variable contents?
    maybe there is a completely different way to achieve this
