What you can do
Give customers a searchable place to find answers before contacting your team. Where to find it: Knowledge → Articles, Manage and AccessBefore you start
- A brand and permission to manage knowledge.
- A list of common questions your customers ask.
Steps
1
Open Knowledge and select or create the centre for your brand and environment.
2
Choose its default language and the additional languages you will maintain.
3
Create collections for clear subjects such as Getting started, Orders and Account help. Arrange parent collections and their order.
4
Choose who can read each collection: public visitors, signed-in customers or internal staff. Review Access for any group restrictions.
5
Create your first article and check the customer-facing centre before sharing its link. Keep internal collections out of public navigation.
Example
A retailer creates public delivery and returns collections, plus an internal collection for staff handling disputed orders.Things to know
- A centre is the whole help library; a collection is a folder of related articles.
- Do not place secrets or staff-only procedures in a public collection.
What happens next
Customers can browse an organized help centre, while restricted content stays limited to its intended audience.
