When you export Knowledgeworker Create courses as SCORM, xAPI, or HTML packages, you can use information from the package to view details about the exported course. This can be helpful if you want to compare different versions of an exported course (e.g., by export date), need information for troubleshooting (e.g., if there are issues with a SCORM package in the LMS), or if you have access to the SCORM package but not to the course itself.
How to proceed
Each export package contains the metainfo.xml file. This file includes metadata about the course, such as the export date, the layout theme used, or the course title.
Extract the files in the export package and open the metainfo.xml file, for example, using a browser.
You will find the following frequently needed information in the metainfo.xml file between the corresponding tags:
| Information | Tags in metainfo.xml | Example |
| Knowledgeworker Create Course ID | <courseId></courseId> | 2045 |
| Layout theme | <courseTheme></courseTheme> | knowledgeworker |
| Export date and time | <date></date> | 2025-03-19_11-23-58 |
| Language(s) the course was exported in (code*) | <language></language> | de_DE |
* The code is composed of the language according to ISO 639-1 (two lowercase letters) and the country according to ISO 3166-1 (two uppercase letters). This makes it possible to clearly distinguish between variants of the same language, e.g., American English (en_US) and British English (en_UK).
The file also contains additional information, such as the tracking configuration or the software version used, which may be relevant when responding to a support request.
