Supported SCORM and xAPI Authoring Tools

Supported SCORM and xAPI Authoring Tools

EmergeLMS and Tin Canny provides support for almost all standards-compliant SCORM and xAPI/Tin Can modules. This includes dispatch files, but not all authoring tools that publish dispatch have full support for resume (and in some cases tracking) behaviours in Tin Canny. Multi-SCO modules are currently not supported. We cannot guarantee support for all authoring tools. Tin Canny testing is done primarily against Storyline, iSpring, Rise, Captivate and H5P.

Note if you try to upload a zip file created by a tool not SCORM or xAPI compliant, you’ll see a warning that xAPI/SCORM statements sent by the module will not be recorded and you’ll be prompted to select the .html file in the zip that will launch the content.


1 Articulate Rise modules will only send a Completed or Passed/Failed verb if they are displayed via Lightbox or a new window and upon closing the lightbox/window. When adding Rise modules, you should avoid using iFrame as the display method (at least if SCORM is being used; xAPI modules from recent Rise versions may work). Alternatively, you can override Completion Condition on the lesson or topic edit page by specifying other verbs such as “attempted” or “experienced” to trigger the Mark Complete button.


2 iSpring 8 modules will unfortunately fail in Chrome with versions 80 and higher. iSpring cannot patch older modules and is therefore requiring the course authors republish them with iSpring 9 for proper tracking with Chrome 80 and higher.


2 iSpring modules whose completion is based on viewing of slides will only send a Passed verb if the module is displayed via Lightbox or a new window and upon closing the lightbox/window. When adding iSpring modules, you should avoid using iFrame as the display method. Alternatively, you can override Completion Condition on the lesson or topic edit page by specifying other verbs such as “attempted” or “experienced” to trigger the Mark Complete button.
