Knowledge Base Management in SafariDesk

​

Knowledge Base Overview

The Knowledge Base in SafariDesk allows you to create, organize, and publish help articles for your customers and internal teams. It serves as a centralized hub for documentation, including:

• Product guides
• Troubleshooting articles
• Billing and account information
• Updates and announcements

A well-structured knowledge base helps reduce support tickets, improve customer experience, and provide self-service support.

​

Accessing the Knowledge Base

To manage your articles, navigate to the Knowledge Base section from your dashboard. Here, you can:

• View all categories and articles
• Track article status (Draft, Published, Archived)
• See authors and last modified dates

​

Understanding the Structure

SafariDesk organizes content into two levels:

​

Categories

Categories group related articles together (e.g., Billing & Payments, Product Guides, Updates & Announcements).

​

Articles

Articles are individual pieces of content created within a category.

⚠️ You must create a category first before adding articles.

​

Creating a Category

To create a new category:

1. Click the Create button
2. Select Category
3. Enter the category name
4. Click Create

Once created, the category will appear in your Knowledge Base and will be ready to hold articles.

​

Creating an Article

After creating a category, you can add articles to it.

1. Click the Create button
2. Select Article
3. Enter the article title
4. Choose a category from the dropdown at the top
5. Click Create

The article will now be added to the selected category.

​

Drafts and Publishing

When an article is first created, it is saved as a Draft. To make it visible to users:

1. Open the article
2. Review and edit the content
3. Click the Publish button

Once published, the article becomes accessible in your Knowledge Base.

​

Managing Articles

Each article includes the following details:

• Title – Name of the article
• Status – Draft, Published, or Archived
• Author – Creator of the article
• Last Modified – Most recent update

You can update, archive, or republish articles at any time.

​
