Tin Can API launch link is an activity plugin for Moodle which allows you to launch Tin Can content and track that content to an external LRS configured in Moodle. The plugin then pulls data from the Learner Record Store (LRS) back into Moodle to feed Moodle’s completion tracking and give the learner that little green tick!
It is also compatible with Storyline, Captivate and others. You don’t need to upload the activities to Moodle – just host them anywhere on the internet.
This short Youtube video gives you an overview of how to configure the plugin and demos launch from Moodle with tracking.
You can download the latest version of the Tin Can API launch link activity from this link: https://moodle.org/plugins/view/mod_tincanlaunch
More documentation about the Tin Can API launch link activity can be found here: https://github.com/garemoko/moodle-mod_tincanlaunch/blob/master/README.md

Hi
Is there going to be a plugin updated for Moodle 4? This seems to be exactly what I’m looking for, but it doesn’t seem to be rated to work with Moodle 4. I would like to use it to bring in my Articulate content.
Hi Jacqueline,
We’re trying to get in touch with David, the author. To be honest it appears this plugin is no longer being maintained, as its last update was in 2018.
Have you taken a look at https://moodle.org/plugins/logstore_xapi ? It is compatible with Moodle 4.1.
Let me know if you need help, or if you find an answer. Best of luck!
