Please Explain: How to update revised SCORM objects?
Hello,
I'm relatively new to using Forma LMS. I'm on version 2.3 which I know is a couple version behind; however, I believe the how to aspect of this question would still apply, regardless of being a few versions behind.
In the LMS, I have a course created and in that course, I have two SCORM learning objects for users to undertake. Let's call them SCORM A and SCORM B. Let's also say a bug is reported in SCORM B and I make a revision to the SCORM B content (prepared in Storyline 360). I then have a new zip file that I need to upload to the LMS.
Is it possible to just select the existing learning object, for example, SCORM B, and reupload the file? I haven't found a way to update SCORM learning objects. What I did in the meantime is to just delete SCORM B's learning object and then use the new button on the teacher view to begin the process again of creating a new learning object, SCORM, and uploading the zip file again. Since there is a warning about deleting content removes the tracking associated with it (both SCORM A and B have embedded quizzes) I don't think this is the way to go.
How do I update/revise existing SCORM objects with a revised/newer version (zip file package) without deleting the existing SCORM learning object that already exists? Is this possible?
Thank you,
Michael

There's no way to do it in the frontend (GUI).
If you made a little correction, you can overwrite the files via FTP.

Thanks for the responses alfa24 and max. Luckily for me, I'm also the sysadmin of that server. Looks like I now get to work on setting up sFTP so I can securely manage updating SCORM packages this way. Thanks for providing a workaround and the translated blog post!
