The eLearning specification xAPI, which employs a shared format for receiving and transmitting data, is used to collect data about the diverse range of experiences within online learning activities, thereby enabling the exchange of knowledge between multiple systems. This paper presents Logstore xAPI, a plugin that emits Moodle events as xAPI statements, allowing a modular, interoperable, performing and secure way of logging user interactions and learning experiences, and send them to a Learning Record Store (LRS) to be stored and further analysed. We describe all phases of mapping Moodle events to statements and storing them in the LRS, along with the issues we encountered and our solutions.
