This project uses the Open Trivia Database API (https://opentdb.com/) to fetch the questions using the AJAX technology. Once the questions are fetched, the Common JavaScript interface for Adobe Captivate is used to populate the value of Captivate variables that are then used to display the fetched questions to the user. Some basic error handling is also baked into the project if the remote API does not send the expected response. Variables and advanced actions are used to power the Captivate side of this project.

This project demonstrates how to use the AJAX capabilities of the browser to fetch remote data and to use this data to create a game in Adobe Captivate.
