Tracking learning with xAPI

Learning analytics in Valamis LXP use xAPI statements for tracking the detailed learning progress of each user. This data is stored in the Learning Record Store, or LRS. 

You can browse and filter various xAPI statements that are created on your environment, using the Statement Viewer. 

By default, Statement Viewer shows all Statements, unfiltered. 

There are several ways you can filter Statements to get exactly the ones you need.

  1. Agent value - username or ID
  2. Verb 
  3. Activity ID

You can also define the period of time, from which to show Statements.

If you click on any Statement, you will see the actual details in full form.

You can also export a defined number of latest Statements in a JSON file.
