Why the report exists
Every authoring tool that imports another tool’s files has to make decisions: what maps cleanly, what has to change, and what cannot come across at all. Most importers make those decisions quietly. Allure Create writes each one down. When you import a supported Storyline .story file, you get editable Canvas slides and a conversion report with an entry for every conversion decision, including anything that did not convert.
The report is the difference between “the import worked” and knowing what you are about to deliver.
Work through it in three passes
- Read what did not convert. Start with the entries that say something was left out. Decide for each one whether to rebuild it in Canvas, replace it, or drop it with the client’s agreement.
- Check what changed. Some content converts with a change you should see with your own eyes, such as a substitution or a timing difference. Open those slides in the learner preview.
- Spot-check what converted. Preview the slides your client cares most about, even when the report says they converted cleanly.
What to tell your client
Clients do not need the whole report, but they should not be surprised. A short note works: which slides were rebuilt, what was replaced, and what you removed and why. Keep the report with the project so you can answer questions later.
Know the limits before you quote
Not every Storyline feature converts. Import a representative file before you quote a conversion job, and read the report first.
Then check readiness
An imported course is still a course you are responsible for. Run the readiness check for captions, transcripts, alt text, labels, contrast and keyboard access before you export. Blockers must be fixed before a production export.
