Note
  • Add search keywords to the link to make it easy for your end user to search for it in Self Help.
  • Add tags to your link content.
Info

If you have enabled Smart Context, all content created on your application is auto-tagged. However, if static content (articles, videos, and links) is not created on your application using studio, you must add the global-page tag to display such content in the Self Help widget on your application. To tag content, see Add Tags to content.
If the tag doesn't work on your account, contact support@whatfix.com.

Note
  • If you configure Page tags as Visibility Rules for a Self Help segment, then all the static content associated with the Page tag appears in the Self Help widget when the tag is evaluated. In this case, you need not add global-page tag or Auto tags to the static content created using the dashboard.
  • If you cannot add tags while creating content in an account that has Smart Context enabled, you need to first create a Flow and save it in your dashboard. Ensure that this Flow is not pushed to Production. Creating a flow generates Auto tags that can be added to the desired content. These Auto tags are seen in the Tags section. Once the tags are generated, you can delete the flow.
  1. Click Save Video.
