Data Transfer Between Your LMS and SimCapture
Learn how to seamlessly transfer data between your Learning Management System (LMS) and SimCapture for streamlined educational workflows.
Table of Contents
Once a course is integrated between your LMS and SimCapture, the following information will be exchanged:
LMS to SimCapture
- The Course Title and Participants will be sent from the LMS, updating SimCapture immediately after the initial sync. Any changes to the Course Title or Participants should be made within the LMS and will reflect in SimCapture after the automatic nightly sync. You can apply these changes immediately by running a manual sync from the SimCapture Course page.
- If you are not using SSO, participants must exist in both SimCapture and the LMS to be applied to the linked courses.
SimCapture to LMS
- Individual scores for any completed evaluations will transfer from SimCapture to your LMS. If you link an LMS course to an existing SimCapture course with completed evaluations, those scores will appear in your LMS upon initial linking. New scores completed in SimCapture will show in your LMS after the automatic nightly sync. You can also run a manual sync from the SimCapture Course page for immediate updates.
- Currently, we will send the Evaluation Title, Scenario Title, and individual scores (e.g., 8/10 or 80%). Only raw data for individual scores is sent; overall course scores and other evaluation details (questions, answers, hints, categories, etc.) will not be included.
Notes
- Only course titles will be transferred; lessons and other smaller components from your LMS will not appear in SimCapture.
- Users are transferred during the initial course linking/setup, with future updates applied automatically on a nightly basis.
- Courses marked as Completed or Archived will not sync new user information.
