Google Analytics in Storyline
HI
I have enabled Google analytic in a SCORM course developed using SL1 before 4 months.
I have enabled the tracking code after publishing and enabled the event triggers inside the story file.
Now, the report I got from GA is remarkable/immanence/no words to say....
I would like to share my experience with this here...
1. Geographic Location (city, contry, metro, etc...) where the learners have accessed and the number of learners metric in each location
2. What are the resolutions learners used (i have receive more the 150 resolutions monitors) among 1200 learners.
3. How many learners attended Quiz and How many skipped
4. How many of them are desktop users and ipad users
5. which OS learners used to view this course
6. who are the network service providers for them
7. which flash player version learners used to view the course
8. which browser has been used to view this course by the learner (with browser version )
9. what are the slides users spent more time and what the slides users spent less time (with slides title)
10. Sessions, page view and so on... no end....
this helped me to understand more about the learner , to develop provide even better courses.
Many Thanks to Storyline and Google.
Hey all, I just finished a little javascript lib to make this easier. It automatically tracks pageViews for slides and you can manually add triggers for tracking events.

If you are a coder, please improve it and make a pull request!
I'd like to make the event tracking automatic based on SCORM interactions but because the cmi.suspend_data is compressed I am unable to. Actually, it is possible but I didn't feel like reverse engineering the compression. It's extremely hacky stuff; chunks, base64, etc. Proprietary comopression? Boo. I wish Articulate would include a decompression function for the string in the published output. It sure would empower us to do more with the tool. Especially when publishing to Flash.
Hi Ashley,
Its very simple to embed GA in SL courses . I will sure share the steps in a doc if anyone interested in implementing GA in SL courses.
Could you please share the information with me.
Thanks.

Hi! Do you have the steps or methods to conect storyline with GA? THX
Thanks Senthil for sharing that here! A lot of information gathered. :-)
You may want to share more in terms of how you embed the Google Analytic code ad I know that it's a common question.
Senthil, I would be grateful if you could share this information with me. Thanks so much for your find.
Hi, Bryan - As this thread is a bit older, you may want to reach out to Senthil directly using the Contact Me link on his profile. :)
HI Bryan,
Give me one or 2 days time to prepare the doc.
But before that, please create a GA account from GOOGLE.
I hope you should have knowledge about GA and its terminologies. (eg: Tracking ID, Website Property, Account and the limitations)
If not please login to google academy website and have a prerequisite knowledge such as platform principles and and digital analytics fundamentals.
Awesome! No worries, I have several Tracking codes and use with multiple websites.
Take your time. Thanks so much for this.
Bryan
Hi there,
This post is really Interesting.
How can I have a copy of your document?
Thanks Senthil for coming back to help out Bryan!
Hi Senthil,
Could I also take a look at your document? Your post sounds very similiar to what I am trying to accomplish with some of the courses I handle in our LMS. Sometimes I receive a "Tracking Not Installed" in Google Analytics even after I have embedded my Tracking Code in the story.html file as directed in the GA Help Section. Maybe your document could shed some light on some things for me.
Thanks in advance!
Hi Elisa. We're also looking into this and Senthil hasn't responded for a few weeks now. Could you please share a copy of the document either her in this thread or as a Direct Message / Email?
Much appreciated!
This thread is a bit older, so you may want to ping Senthil directly using the "contact me" button on his profile.
HI Elisha,
I have sent an email to you with the document attached in it.
