Article summary

Text content, such as Articles, can be embedded within the Self Help and Task List widgets to help end users find content within the application. With Trend Insights, analyze the number of users who viewed or closed an article and filter the data based on city, country, browser, and more.

The following events can be used to analyze text content:

  • Article viewed
  • Article closed
Info:

These events appear in the dropdown only if users perform or engage with them. Ensure that you create the Article, add it to Self Help or Task List, and publish it to end users. Once the end users interact with the Article, view the engagement data with the specified events.

Use Cases

  • Analyze the number of unique users who viewed the article, Lead Management Overview, from Self Help based on country.
    Event name: Article viewed
    Event filter: Content Title = Lead Management Overview
    Event filter: Event Trigger Location = widget
    User breakdown: Country
    Metric: Unique users

    Event name: Article closed
    Event filter: Content Title = Salesforce Service Cloud Overview
    Event filter: Segment Name = Onboarding
    User filter: Cohort = New users
