I have managed to publish as web course, however in IE and EDGE browsers clicking the index.html does nothing. I can get the course to open in Chrome however, so it is working just not on those browser. Is this normal?
Secondly, the goal is to publish the web course on SharePoint, however this wants to treat the index.html as a .PDF. Has anyone successfully got a course launching in SharePoint 365?
You need to make sure the file extension is visible before renaming. In File Explorer, select the view tab and check the Show File name extension box. Now when you rename the the file, you'll be able to remove the file type and replace with .aspx
Worked like a charm. I didn't have to do the unblock which is probably specific to your security settings on your companies. Thanks for posting. FYI, I had something similar with Camtasia recordings on SP which fix was same, except you had to add a little java, so was expecting this to have another step. Thankfully worked fine.
But I have to admit that I already get stuck in step 4 where I cant find the tick box. Not sure if I need it, because I was able to save the copy as .aspx.
However, when I then have it on Sharepoint, all that happens when I click it, is that the file is getting downloaded, and not launching the course in a new browser tab. So I am doing something wrong …..
Sorry I didn't see this until now Carla. You are correct about the tick box. It varies and I also have not seen this in recent months, so this could be related to our specific security and environment as Barbara mentions in her post.
An additional step that I require now is to be a SITE OWNER of the SharePoint site where I am loading the files. Otherwise, it just tries to download the launch file. Hope this helps.
Once the course is stored in SharePoint, has anyone successfully got the course embedded inside a sharepoint page as this is what I want to do?
I've been trying to do with storyline courses for years but never with any consistent success. We came up with a workaround using our LMS (Cornerstone on demand) to store the course and then using the embed webpart in sharepoint to surface it but this doesn't seem to work for Rise courses
SharePoint doesn't support much of anything Articulate I've tried and failed. All the supposed workarounds only work on earlier SP. Get your techs to set you up an IIS site and link from there.
If you are using Microsoft Servers your techies will know. I have an internal website set up on IIS with a public ip. Just export to html and off you go.
Trish, in addition to being the SITE OWNER of the site, the site needs to have custom script enabled. When my SharePoint admin team did that on our site, I was able to get this to work!
The issue I have now is that I want to share the SharePoint link to the index.asp file in email or a PDF but when you click the link in the email or pdf, it asks if you want to open or download the file. If you click Open it properly launches the content. I wish it would just launch automatically. Any ideas?
Hi Trish, thanks a lot - it works out. But I still have a problem: We implemented Storyline-Parts within Rise. So I renamed die index.html to index.aspx and the learning works within Sharepoint. But when the learner gets to the Storyline-part - Sharepoint wants to open story.html - which isn't working. Tryed to rename story.html to story.aspx - but that was obviously an to easy thinking. ;) Do you or anybody have an idea, it I can fix that in anyway for Sharepoint? Thanks a lot. :)

Hi Karin, I'm in the same place. I'm trying to find where those story.html files are being called from, and need to point to the aspx name instead...I think.

Hi Trish,
I tried to reproduce your solution.

Thanks Trish. Does it matter where in Sharepoint you save the file? ie. a document library or site assets or other?
It just downloads the aspx file when I try it - I set up a new doc library folder in the main 'Documents' doc library
Thanks Mike, daft question but what is an IIS site?
If you are using Microsoft Servers your techies will know. I have an internal website set up on IIS with a public ip. Just export to html and off you go.

This didn't work for me either. It allowed me to change the name to index.aspx but it doesn't change the type of file which is still an HTML.
