xAPI - Launch in Iframe

With this enhancement, the administrator can specify whether or not xAPI courses launch in an Iframe when they are launched by a user, which makes it possible to record the user's view time for the course. The option to allow xAPI courses to launch in an Iframe is only available for xAPI courses, and the option is enabled by default.

To access the Course Catalog, go to Admin > Tools > Learning > Catalog Management > Course Catalog. Find the xAPI course you want to modify, click the Options drop-down, and select the Edit option.

Launch xAPI Course in Iframe

To allow xAPI courses to launch in an Iframe, which enables the system to record how long a user spent viewing the course, ensure the Launch xAPI Course in Iframe option is checked, which is located on the General page of the Course Catalog for the xAPI course. This option is enabled by default. To disable the option, you can uncheck the Launch xAPI Course in Iframe option if needed. Click the Save button to save your changes. Note: The availability of this option is dependent on a new backend setting, which is enabled by default.

When users launch this xAPI course, the system records how long the course window is open. The user's view time for the course can be viewed on the Training Details page for the course and can also be reported on via Reporting 2.0.
