Saving data with triggers in Articulate Storyline examples

Quote from Cluelabs Support on July 22, 2019, 6:25 pm

Example 1.

I set up a field called “status” and want to set it to either “pass” or “fail” depending on the situation.

I will create a JavaScript trigger with the following code to set the status to “pass”:

CloudSet('status', 'pass');

And the following JavaScript trigger to set the status to “fail”:

CloudSet('status', 'fail');

I will use conditional triggers in Storyline to run the script:

Example 2.

I want to track whether the learner answered the question correctly.

I set up a field called “quiz” and want to use values “correct” or “incorrect” depending on the answer provided.

I will add this JavaScript trigger to execute when the timeline of the Correct layer starts:

CloudSet('quiz', 'correct');

And this JavaScript trigger on the Incorrect layer:

CloudSet('quiz', 'incorrect');

Example 3.

I want to save the response entered by the learner in the module.

I set up a field called “reflection” in the data table.

In Storyline, I will add a text entry box for the learner to type their response:

Then I will add the following trigger when the Submit button is clicked:

var player = GetPlayer();

var entry = player.GetVar("TextEntry1");

CloudSet('reflection', entry);
