Software simulation not accepted in LMS

Hi, I'm new to creating software simulations and using Captivate 2019. When I publish my simulation as html and then attempt to upload the zip file to my LMS (I'm using iSpringLearn), I get an error saying it is not a valid SCORM package. I thought everything published by Captivate would be SCORM-compliant. Is there something else I need to do to my html files?

    If your Captivate project file does not have LMS reporting turned on and SCORM selected as the standard being used then it will not publish a SCORM package, just a normal HTML5 lesson.

     

    So turn on reporting and set up SCORM, then publish again, selecting the ZIP option in the publish settings.  SCORM packages are always ZIP files.

    Ahhh thank you SO much. I had ignored the reporting option because it's in the Quiz settings, and this isn't a quiz as such. It uploads properly now!
