Question

Report click box action to LMS

I'm using Captivate 2017 and I'd like three click boxes at the end of a course to report if the learner clicked them or not, back to an LMS for reporting.

The LMS is Learn.com.

Two click boxes open a website, and one opens a PDF.

I would like to track if learners click these boxes are not.

Is there a way to do this in Captivate 2017.?

I tried adding it to the quiz, but that didn't work how I wanted.

I wonder if an advanced action is what I need, but I'm not sure.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Diana

    What do you mean when you say it didn't work the way you want?

    How did it work?

    How do you want it to work?

    It added the click boxes to the quiz scoring and moved the scoring page to the end of the course. I don't want the click tracking to report on the quiz results or with the quiz.

    I've recently added a variable and advanced action for each click box. I've not had a chance to test that yet to see if it works. I can tell you, I don't want the clicks reporting as part of the quiz or quiz results.

    Thank you for the idea Lilybiri. I'm just not following what you mean by delay the action and adding advanced actions and don't allow to visit. I have no idea where to begin to make all of this work. Are you aware of instructions out there for situations like this? 

    I'm struggling to get my mind around what all I need to do to make this work. :-(


    I published tutorials about lot of use cases, but not exactly yours.  As Rod points out, I am persuaded that most developers could save tons of hours if they took at least some training. At this moment I am training a Captivate user with a 'personalised' training, and after each session she exclaimed 'Why didn"t I find you one year ago, it would have saved me so much time and frustrations'.

    I was talking about a short advanced action with 'Delay next actions...' and 'Jump to commands'? Prventing a user of visitig certain slides, means you use custom navigation buttons, not the playbar, and allow never to go to those slides. You can hide them in the TOC as well, if you allow navigation by TOC.
