You can use our Knowledge Capture app to leverage your team’s collective knowledge.

Using the app, agents can:

• Search the Help Centre without leaving the ticket
• Insert links to relevant Help Centre articles in ticket comments
• Add inline feedback to existing articles that need updates
• Create new articles while answering tickets using a pre-defined template

Agents never have to leave the ticket interface to share, flag, or create knowledge, so they can help the customer, while also improving your self-service offerings for other customers.

To get started, see our Knowledge Capture documentation.

And before your agents can start creating new knowledge directly from tickets, you’ll need to create a template for them to use. To help you along, we’ve provided some template ideas below. You can copy and paste any sample template below into a new article, add the KCTemplate label to the article, and you’ll be all set.

You can create your own categories, sections, and articles and modify or completely delete ours. See the Organising knowledge base content and Creating articles in the Help Centre to learn how.

If you have configured your Help Centre to support multiple languages, you can publish content in your supported languages.

Here's the workflow for localising your Help Centre content into other languages:

1. Get your content translated in the other languages.
2. Configure the Help Centre to support all your languages.
3. Add the translated content to the Help Centre.

For complete instructions, see Localising the Help Centre.

You can modify the look and feel of your Help Centre by changing colours and fonts. See Branding your Help Centre to learn how.

You can also change the design of your Help Centre. If you're comfortable working with page code, you can dig in to the site's HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to customise your theme. To get started, see Customising the Help Centre.

You're looking at your new Help Centre. We populated it with placeholder content to help you get started. Feel free to edit or delete this content.

The Help Centre is designed to provide a complete self-service support option for your customers. The Help Centre contains: a knowledge base and, on Guide Professional and Enterprise, a Customer Portal for support requests. You can also add a community to your Help Centre if you have Zendesk Gather.

Your customers can search for knowledge base articles to learn a task or search the community, if available, to ask fellow users questions. If your customers can't find an answer, they can submit a support request.

For more information, see Help Centre guide for end users.

Each user has a Help Centre profile (Guide Professional and Enterprise), so your Help Centre users can get to know one another better. Profiles contain relevant information about the user, along with their activities and contributions.
