FAQs
What if I use Matching and Drag & Drop questions? Does Opus support that?
To have better parity with quiz question types provided by Articulate Rise 360, our team is working on adding Matching and Ordering (Drag & Drop) question types to Opus. In the meantime, AI Assist will determine the best question type to mimic a Matching or Drag & Drop question.
Can I export the Opus module to a SCORM package?
Opus does not support export to SCORM. You can only export courses and modules as PDFs.
What if I don’t know if the SCORM package was built from or it was purchased from a third party?
You can use a tool like SCORMCloud to test and preview the contents of your SCORM file. This should help you view all of the file contents so that you know what needs to be uploaded and prepared for export from Articulate Rise 360.
Can I try uploading multiple file types in one import (i.e. upload a PDF and SCORM package to create one module)?
No, this is not supported. You can only use one of the upload options at a time.
What are the big differences between Opus’ and Articulate Rise 360’s builder?
Mobile-First vs Desktop Design: While Rise 360 offers responsive design, Opus is built specifically for mobile-first learning experiences, with a native mobile app and interface optimized for on-the-go training.
Translation Capabilities: Opus provides automatic translation of content into 100+ languages, whereas Rise 360 requires manual translation or third-party services for multilingual content.
Interactive Features: Rise 360 focuses on conventional eLearning elements like click-and-reveal elements, while Opus emphasizes modern engagement features like micro learning.
I have Articulate Storyline, why can’t I upload that into Opus?
Currently, Opus only supports files exported from Rise 360. Storyline files are not compatible with Opus' mobile-first format and language translation capabilities which limits Opus' ability to play the file.
