Animating the Self Help tab increases your chances of catching end users' attention and helps them find answers themselves.
Segment Self Help using Tags so that end users receive relevant and focused content. Tag content based on the pages on which you want them to appear or the roles for whom you want them to appear. For example, if you want certain content to be displayed only to account managers, then create a role tag and add the particular tag to your content.
For more information, see Add Tags to content.
