Storyline: Animate or GSAP in JavaScript animations
Hi, I have used some GSAP animations, although not heavily. I've just found out that the advanced JavaScript API ( https://www.articulatesupport.com/article/Storyline-360-Advanced-JavaScript-API) exposes the JavaScript animate command, which seems to be what the AI generated animations use. Which should I as an end-user work with (long-term support)? Which is easier to use/learn? Which has better functionality? I currently don't have access to the AI Assistant version of Storyline so will need to code these myself. ThanksAI TTS and SSML functionality
Hello everyone, I would like to bring the attention of the community on AI TTS and the limited use of SSML with it. I know that it is not supported because you built AI voices "to understand the relationship between words and adjust delivery accordingly". However, AI voices mispronounce acronyms and other words like company names and such. By saying that I am forced to use the old TTS voices, and it is a bit upsetting because the AI voices sound indeed more natural and "human", big benefits in e-learning for ensuring a more pleasant learning experience for our users. This is a request to work on SSML for AI voices because I strongly believe it is needed. AnnaAI Assistant Model Changing
Hello! Is anybody else having an issue with the Text-to-Speech model changing mid-slide? For a project I'm working on, I'm specifically using Multilingial v2 but any time I generate a new clip inside this project, it's defaulting to v3, which sounds very different and causes the narration to be uneven if I don't make the necessary adjustment. I mean, if I have to start using v3, I'll start using it. In the meantime, for projects where I'm already using v2, manually adjusting each time, even when regenerating audio for an existing clip, is becoming a bit of a pain point.New in Storyline's AI Assistant: JavaScript Interactions
We just shipped something I have been itching to talk about. You can now use the AI assistant in Storyline to generate custom JavaScript triggers that turn a static slide into a dynamic interaction. Not just “show layer when variable changes” dynamic. I mean real, game-like behavior. This feature unlocks a lot for course authors: Lightweight gamification More immersive and engaging content Unique interactions that are tough or flat out impossible with built-in triggers alone And the best part is you can iterate with the chat. Ask for tweaks. Refine the behavior. Adjust the difficulty. Clean up the logic. All without needing to write a single line of JavaScript code yourself. Non-coders rejoice! I saw a LinkedIn post recently showing off a fun "fruit drop" game where learners move a basket along the bottom of the screen catching falling fruit. It looked fairly involved and it made me wonder: could the AI Assistant help me create something similar? So I tried it. I laid out a simple slide with images of fruit and a basket. Then I opened the AI Assistant and started prompting. I had the core mechanics working in about 20 minutes. I spent another hour or so polishing and iterating to get what I have today. I was really impressed with just how quickly it all came together. I also really liked how the AI would point out things it couldn't do yet, while still giving me a way forward. For example, it's not able to create Storyline variables (yet), so it instead asked me to create the variable and give it the name so it could use it in the JavaScript. The attached gif shows it in action, or you can play it for yourself on Review 360, I'll put a link in the comments. While this was a really fun and rewarding exercise, it's not perfect. We're actively working to smooth things out. Have you tried this out yet? If so I'm curious: What worked well? Where did it fall down? What kinds of interactions are you trying to build? Drop your examples, wins, frustrations, and "I wish it could..." ideas in the comments. We're listening. If you've been intimidated by JavaScript in Storyline, this might be your moment to jump in.

Hi, I have used the AI assistant feature to develop animation in storyline 360, after the course is published and while moving the seek bar the animation is getting disturbed. Kindly let me know if there is any work around.Chatbots in courses
People have been able to make AI chatbots that pull content and answer user questions in courses. It would be great if this could be a feature storyline provided without having to use external programs to build the chatbot. I build large guides in rise and while the search feature is nice, it would take the guide to the next level if learners could ask their question to the chatbot and get answers from the content in Rise.Simple Solution = Best Solution for Customer Interaction (ELH Challenge #538)
Problem For this portion of my customer service eLearning module, I wanted to create an immersive experience that would help the learner practice the decision-making process and the approved scripting they must adhere to. Solution (my journey) I wanted to try my hand at using Rise360’s AI Assistant for a CSR-to-customer interaction. But my attempt did not produce what I was looking for. So… Why not try to “vibe” it? I switched over to Vibe Coding. I figured something “new” and “fresh” would liven up this customer service training module. I abandoned it after 12 attempts. I got close to a viable solution, but still had a ways to go. I returned to AI Assistant, used the proper format it needed, and tweaked the remainder of my scenario without using the avatar setting. Lessons Learned For a while, I was stuck in my head with the idea of “new and fresh.” But 10 out of 10 times, the simplest solution you build is likely the best possible one. Don’t underestimate simplicity. Finally, sometimes using a tool you touch daily can blind you to its potential in a new way. That’s what my final solution is – Rise360’s native scenario builder without the typical avatars I’ve used in the past. Conclusion Though we have access to “new shiny” tools and “AI on the brain,” tried-and-true tools and techniques will never go out of style. We ought to continually revisit the tried-and-true to be reminded how cool they are. 😉 Click here to experience the demo I built. 👀 It also includes more details of the great learning experience I had. 📝 Disclaimer: my demo doesn't strictly adhere to the challenge's parameters (a scenario instead of learning objectives), but I thought this would be a good place to share this learning experience with the community.
