The specifics: I'm working on a tool that allows learners to create a job plan based on the specifics of an installation/jobsite. They answer questions and the course/tool builds out a plan using variables.
I've gotten the full plan to populate on a single slide, and I can print that slide. My preference, though, is to send the plan to a PDF using JavaScript. I publish for Review locally and add the PDF form to the zip file. When I upload it and check the JavaScript by clicking the button it's attached to, I get this error:

Any thoughts about why this might be happening? I'm attaching the file in case you are able to look at it. Help would be much appreciated! I'll keep messing with a test file and see if I can figure it out in the meantime. :)
Hello Sarah,
Thanks for sharing a copy of your published output. It would be helpful if you could also share a copy of your Storyline 360 .story project file so members of the community can open your course and review how you have your slides setup.
Based on the error message that you encountered, its possible that the JavaScript code you added is trying to access a file that's in a secure location. You can troubleshoot this by moving your file to a publicly accessible location such as Google Drive or Amazon S3 and updating the JavaScript code to see if this helps.
