Scenario 1

For any purpose, use of Launch Data is dependent on the existence of information provided by the manifest. For example, the next application scenario will use Launch Data to display text in Spanish, instead of English. The information in the manifest that pertains to Launch Data is detailed in the highlighted text below:

<organization>
<item identifier="ITEM1" identifierref="RESOURCE" isvisible="false">
<title>Exercise 1 Spanish</title>
<adlcp:dataFromLMS>SPANISH</adlcp:dataFromLMS>
</item>
</organization>

The <adlcp:dataFromLMS> element provides initialization data expected by the resource (i.e., SCO) referred to by the <item> after launch. To send data to the SCO for use after the SCO is launched, the combination of including <adlcp:dataFromLMS> and using Launch Data in the SCO is a good solution.

Further information on implementing this specific data model element may be found in both the Sample RTE Version 1.3.1 and the Content Aggregation Model (CAM) Version 1.3.1 documents.
