cmi5 is the latest xAPI profile that 'bridges the gap' between SCORM and xAPI, the comprehensive list of benefits is listed here: https://xapi.com/cmi5/ but it is already being offered as an export type in Articulate 360 so adoption with Absorb would be the last step in allowing us to use this protocol for our online course content.
Thank you for your feedback! It fits with our strategic goals, so we have it earmarked for future development, and we are working on integrating it into our roadmap.
While we don’t have a firm timeline yet, we’ll keep you updated as we make progress. Your feedback plays a big part in shaping our priorities, so we truly appreciate your involvement. Please continue sharing your ideas - they’re essential to our ongoing improvement.
I agree! We're missing out on collecting valuable data.
It's on our short list but I don't have a time frame right now.
Any updates on this request? Will there be an option for us to upload cmi5 files other than SCORMs?
Couldn't agree more. This would be incredibly beneficial. The tools exist from Articulate but we need Absorb to adopt this protocol.
From what I understand, cmi5 offers more data reporting capabilities than xAPI Tincan or SCORM. While subtle, I'd like to see Absorb embrace the extra capabilities of the most modern online course protocol at our disposal.
