How to launch xAPI course hosted on cloud scorm from an LMS?


I have an LMS and I want to launch courses that are hosted on cloud scorm from this lms, for example the user in the lms should click a link to launch a course that is hosted on scorm cloud. I read about dispatch function in scorm cloud which generates a file that should be saved then I can run this file to launch the course but this wont work for me because there is no automatic function to generate the dispatch and run it when the user click the link. Is there a way to create a link for launching in scorm cloud?


Solution

  • Assuming you don't need SSO between the LMS and SCORM Cloud, the way to do this is to use a public URL: https://support.scorm.com/hc/en-us/articles/206164296-How-to-generate-a-public-URL-

    If you do need SSO and your LMS supports SCORM, then the best way is probably to use Dispatch. You say in your question that you can't use Dispatch, which may suggest that your LMS does not support SCORM?

    If you need SSO and your LMS does not support SCORM, then it would be useful to know what your LMS does support.
