Update variables from excel file

Hi,

I managed to use javascript and power automate to export storyline variables to an excel file.

However, i have no idea how to do the reverse. How do i import variables from an excel file into storyline? Is it possible?

Thank you.

Regards,

Joshua

    Have you considered using a flat CSV file with a tab, or comma delimiter?

    Speaking hypothetically... maybe you could set up some triggers that call upon the File API functions in a browser to read the CSV and load the data/variables?

    Honestly I have been waiting for this feature for a long, long time..

    I did find a way of copying variables from one project to another...i.e. simply bringing in slides that refer to those variables and then deleting the unwanted slide...
