With these new features released, how do you plan on implementing or testing xAPI in your organization? What can be Articulate do to further enhance this new xAPI feature?

I'm currently doing an xAPI cohort with the guys from The Learning Guild and Jeff was the presenter on the first session. I don't know xAPI, I'm not a coder but what I do know is that my stakeholders are asking for information that our LMS cannot give them. A plan needs to be made, and this. This right here is EXACTLY what I need. I've attended a lot of other sessions on xAPI and admittedly at some point they start sounding like white noise. But not Jeff. Jeff is the voice of practical, applicable, reason. Thank you Jeff!

Wow love the feedback here! I remember feeling the same way when I was first learning so wanted to provided applicable content on how to get started with xAPI. Glad you found it useful!

This Storyline feature couldn’t have come at a better time as xAPI is something I’m lacking in my toolbox. I’ve been doing what I can to learn it for a new job I have coming up, so when I saw this feature had been added to Storyline, I made my way to KZread in hopes of finding a video just like this one. Thanks!

You Video is Absolutely invaluable for this. Thank you so much, I don't think I've seen anyone or anything and as easy to understand and as comprehensive as your explanation of xAPI. Thank you!

This video was awesome! I have soooo many questions, so I'm looking forward to the next video. For now: I saw that the score for SCORM cloud was unknown. In my LMS, I need to have that score tracking, or it wouldn't complete the course. Was it just for testing, so you didn't add any "submit interaction" trigger? Or when using xAPI, we don't need a scored item in the course?

You don't need to send a score but you can through a trigger and adding results. I will have a video on this in the future.

@@LearningDojo thank you. In my LMS, we need a score or it doesn't show completion. I'll investigate xAPI though with their tech support. I'm so excited I found this!

This video is awesome. I had a doubt regarding this if the learner is offline visited the storyline output and completed the course, when he is online does LRS receive the status automatically.

I personally have not done a lot of exploration with this myself but from what I hear it is doable. However, I think it needs custom JavaScript to do. You would have to test to see if there is an internet connection and then if no internet connection you don't send the statement and then store it and then later test again and if Internet connection is established you have to send it. I don't think Storyline does it automatically unless it is running through a xAPI/cmi5 enabled LMS/LRS that is set up to do that. Sorry does not give you an exact answer but hope that helps some.

I have to say that although this feature is indeed very exciting and video is very engaging, I found myself spending more than a week now to get this to work but without success. Maybe it is the .story file (I followed every action from the video) I published or maybe there is something wrong in my SCORM cloud settings I don't know. I really wish I was able to get to the point of sending xapi statement into my LMS/LRS system...

is there a way of launching a static xapi course locally without a lrs? i mean like creating an FE app, added xapi static files to it, and then render the course inside an ?

Good question, from what I know the LRS is what is needed to capture the xAPI statements. I have not tried doing it locally. Sorry.

Hi Jeff. Thanks for the video! I notice that you had an issue with the object name being reported to the LRS. I've noticed Articulate is reporting the TYPE of object, not the NAME you have given to the object. This feels like an error in the implementation. For example I can name a box 'help button' on Articulate but the LRS will only show 'actor interacted with button'. The work around is to customise the xAPI statement but this feels like doing work where it shouldn't be necessary. Do you know any more about this?

Good question. I think when it first got released there was more of an issue but I have not seen too much of an issue with the object naming now. It is a weird interface though, if you want it to be something different than the button name then you should not select the object but more so give it a custom name which you type in the text entry box. Does that help? If I am understanding correctly. The text entry box allows you to define anything really like "Jeff Batt interacted with first button on page" or something like that.

@@LearningDojo Thanks for getting back to me. I understand what you are suggesting about a text box. For instance if 'text box' contained 'hello world' text then the statement would read 'actor interacted with hello world' - which would make sense. However, many objects don't or shouldn't contain text - for instance when I have a red highlighted rectangle on an image, and when the user mouse hovers over that rectangle and I want some explanation to appear. However, the xAPI statement in the LRS just reads 'actor interacted with rectangle 1'. I'm not explaining this too well. With reference to your video, I could rename 'item 01' to something meaningful but Articulate will not reference this name (which to me is the variable or object name) and instead would call it 'group 01' - which is not helpful when viewed in the LRS. I appreciate that this can be customised but I really need my colleagues (who have no coding experience) to be able to use the wizard. It feels like the wrong way about. When scripting I would reference the variable name and not the contents of the variable (which of course can change).

Are there any alternative tools that work on MAx to design xAPI?
