Tracked locally, only on the browser. The task may show up as not completed on a different device. To store the state of the Task list on your server, contact support@whatfix.com.
Pop-Up Viewed Status
Tracked across devices on the cloud
Tracked locally only on the browser. A Pop-Up that's already viewed may be displayed again on another browser or device. To track the status of the Pop-up on your server, contact support@whatfix.com.
Search
An extensive search algorithm is used to search for and rank content based on how relevant it is. For repository links, videos, and articles, Whatfix also searches the text content inside them to retrieve relevant search results. For more information, see Understand how search works in Self Help.
Only a basic search is implemented, and algorithmic processes like EXACT match, stemming, and stop word optimization are not performed. For text content, searching only considers the title and description. For repository links and video content, searching is performed only based on the title of the content.
Integration HubEnabled by default. Contact support@whatfix.com to configure specific integrations.Feature is not available for Self Hosted accounts.
