Uploading Rise File to SharePoint
Hey All! I am looking to export a Rise File and upload it to a SharePoint site. Has anyone attempted this?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello. I use SharePoint 2010, and I have no issues uploading Rise content. I'm not sure if this works in 2013 or Office365 versions. But here are the steps I follow.
- Export the course as an LMS from Rise (not as a Web Page only).
- Unzip the downloaded SCORM file.
- Copy the entire folder to a location on the SharePoint.
- Access the scormcontent folder.
- Right click on the index file (HTML document) and copy the link.
- Share the link with those who need to access the content.
This totally just worked for me on 365. Thanks!
I am happy to hear!
Hi there - I tried this but when you click the link nothing comes up. Am I doing something wrong?
Hello. Be certain that you're pasting the entire unzipped SCORM File on the SharePoint and then copying the "index" HTML file. If you'd like to upload the error you're experiencing, it might allow me to provide additional guidance.
Where are you putting the folder on Sharepoint?
I tried uploading to the Documents section and it does not work - I just get a blank screen when using the URL.
Is there some where else to put the folder?
Thanks for your help!
Hey, Cara!
Here's a quick Peek (recorded for another customer) at how to upload a Rise course to a web server. Understanding that your situation is a little different, here are a few things we've learned about SharePoint over the years:
- SharePoint Online (the Microsoft Office 365 Hosted Edition) won't play HTML files. As a result, SharePoint Online can't host published Rise content, which includes HTML files.
- You should be able to upload Rise content to a SharePoint Server you host, and you'll want to check with your SharePoint administrator for instructions on how to host HTML content. Depending on your version of SharePoint, you may need to switch to explorer view before uploading content, or you may need to check in content after uploading it. Your administrator will know for sure.
- If you need to track learners' progress and results, publish your Rise content for LMS and use SharePoint's free Learning Kit.
Sharon's suggestion to insert a thumbnail that is hyperlinked to the Rise SHARE URL is good for testing, but the Share feature is really for designed for light sharing, not so much for production training or embedding in another site.
Please let us know how it goes!
This was very helpful, Justin! Thank you so much for sharing.
The video was extremely easy to follow and very well done. Kudos!
Justin - this was very helpful. Thank you. For SharePoint Online, we were able to rename the .html to .aspx. I know that's not a super efficient solution, but it worked for our specific need. (We're just working on how to get SharePoint to index the content so that it can be accessed via SharePoint search.)
Awesome, AJ. Thanks for sharing your workaround with the community, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Specifically, how should one upload web content from Rise into SharePoint 2013? Are there step by step instructions on this process somewhere?
Hi Kimberly,
I saw you also connected with my colleague, Gren, and she shared some info with you. Feel free to let Gren or I know if you need any other help with Rise courses!
Hi Ree,
Interested to know if you found a solution for sharepoint hosting. I have the same issue, I have a lot of guides made in Rise, don't care about tracking them so don't need/want an LMS. Our IT team can't give me any solutions and have moved completely to online sharepoint.
Thanks

I've had success changing the file type from .html to .aspx. I know we still can't get tracking on SharePoint, but we should be able to get usage metrics, correct? As you can tell, I'm not an expert at all!
Colleen - I'd be really interested in how you changed the file type from .html to .aspx AND then were able to house them in a place which could be brought into SharePoint. We have SharePoint Online (SPO). The only way I can figure out how to change the extension is to open the file and change it in the URL line. But when I do, the https:// goes away and then will not be accepted within SPO.
Hi Cara,
We use SharePoint (2007) at work and like you, I have a need to embed both interactions from Engage and courses from Rise directly into the Sharepoint performance platforms I've created. For Rise courses I've been doing it via a content editor web part (inserting a thumbnail that is hyperlinked to the Rise share URL). For Engage interactions, I publish to either Articulate Online or to the Articulate 360 and add that URL as a hyperlink. I've included a screen grab.
I've used the content editor web parts to embed video directly (not needing the thumbnail) via the source editor but I've not tried that for my Articulate courses. It just came to me as I was typing this so I'll try and let you know.
I'm by no means a SharePoint expert, so I'd love to hear from others.
Just tried embedding directly using source edit but no cigar! It didn't work.
Sharon, thank you for your reply! This is more difficult than it sounds. :-) Thank you for the idea and the follow up!
This is great reading and information, thanks for your help!
Hi everyone
I'm having the same problem too - created a new folder in Documents on Sharepoint site contents. I added the entire unzipped SCORM file, and It won't let me right click to get the code to copy on the index. Even if I change the Index file to .aspx, it changes it back automatically to .html
Hi there,
I'm experiencing a similar problem. I use Windows 10 Enterprise and when I save the entire file to our SharePoint site Microsoft Version 20.114.0607.0002 (July 10, 2020), I receive a blank screen as well.
Hello, Ree. The online version of SharePoint won't support Rise 360 output because it is HTML content. If possible, it would be better to host your content on another web server - there are some low-risk options here.
Hello, Rocco!
It looks like you're using SharePoint Online, is that right?
SharePoint Online (the Microsoft Office 365 Hosted Edition) won't play HTML files. As a result, SharePoint Online can't host published Rise 360 content, which includes HTML files.
You might have been able to work around this on desktop machines by renaming the .html file to .aspx. Hopefully someone who has used a similar hosting solution can point you in the right direction!
Hi Ree!
We don't have a specific limit for what we consider a small audience or the hosting duration. We simply recommend that you export your course for web or LMS so you have control over the hosting environment.
