Hi John,

I am struggling to get it all working ... if I sent my file could you add one or two variables to it so they add to my Google sheets?

You should post just one slide you're having an issue with. I really have no need to see your entire project.

Would you like to share an email address so I can share the sheet I have set up?

Ok, you need to add the following trigger to execute when the variable Postcode changes:

var player = GetPlayer();

SheetsSet('Postcode',player.GetVar('Postcode'));

Oh, I see your trigger now, on the Next button, correct? Yes, it looks good. I would just double-check the order of the triggers. Currently, jump to next slide is placed before the SheetsSet trigger. The latter will never execute because you're leaving the slide before it gets to that trigger.

What would be the best trigger?

The way you have them is fine, just change the order so that jump to next slide occurs after the other two.

THis may be a silly question but do I need to host the file or will they work if I leave them local?

That would probably depend on your network, firewall, organizational policy, etc. For me, it worked from the computer locally.

So it worked without any change to the file I sent?

There was one change - reorder the triggers as described in the earlier messages.

Got it working! Hey can you capture Likert scale responses with this method?

Here's the file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qkjlf72srqg16ek/MIA%20Learning%20Module%204%20-%20V6%20-%20GoogleSheets%20Sample%20-%20SL2%20Backup.story?dl=0

If you can attach the triggers to the individual responses, then you can. Or maybe consider building your own likert scale instead of using Storyline's default one.
