The publish settings to use in Articulate Storyline 360 so your SCORM module plays and reports correctly in the World Manager platform.
Build your module however you like — every setting below lives under HOME › Publish › LMS in Storyline 360.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Follow these steps to build a course in Articulate Storyline 360
Set the SCORM version
At the bottom of the LMS tab, set LMS to SCORM 1.2.
Set the publish format
Click the text beside Format and set Publish As to HTML5 / Flash.
Untick Use Articulate Mobile Player for iOS and Android — it breaks playback in the World Manager mobile apps. As Flash support disappears from browsers, HTML5-only becomes the safer (and smaller) choice.
Choose the completion criteria
Open Reporting and Tracking › Tracking and pick how completion is decided.
| Option | How it behaves |
|---|---|
| Track using number of slides viewed | Choose a slide count up to the total. At the maximum, the user must visit every slide before they can continue. |
| Track using quiz result | Completion comes from a results slide. With several results slides, pick which one reports the outcome. |
If your module lets users skip slides via a navigation menu, slide-count tracking can leave them stuck on the final slide unable to continue.
Set the reporting status
On Reporting and Tracking › Reporting, set Report status to LMS as to Passed/Failed.
Other options can stop users progressing from the end of the SCORM back to the platform.
Configure the results slide
If a quiz decides the outcome, open the results slide and click EDIT RESULT SLIDE to set the Passing Score.
Check the triggers list for Submit results — it tells the platform whether the user passed and works with the platform's Finish Button option.
Publish and zip
Click Publish, check the LMS options, press PUBLISH, then choose ZIP in the confirmation dialog and save the file.
- Title — shown above the content; remove it via Storyline Player by unticking Title
- Folder — where the published files are saved on your computer
- Quality — higher quality means a bigger file; Standard is fine if unsure
Set the platform buttons on upload
When you create or update the SCORM in the platform, decide whether to enable Save & Exit and Finish.
| Button | When to enable it |
|---|---|
| Save & Exit | Enable if your module saves progress to World Manager. Disable if it always restarts from the beginning, so users aren't misled into thinking progress is saved. |
| Finish |
Only when the module cannot make the LMSFinish()
API call itself. It appears once completion criteria
are met
and reports passed, failed, completed or browsed.
|
Disabling Save & Exit does not turn off progress saving — a user can still go back or close the tab and resume where they left off. On finish, a failed status returns the user to where they started; passed, completed or browsed sends Training Template modules to the questionnaire, while Standalone modules return to the starting page showing a pass.
