Suggested articles help knowledge base users solve cases quickly. When a new case is saved, the search engine automatically looks for articles that have keywords in common with the admin-selected case fields. The user working the case can scan the articles and attach them to the case if needed, or initiate another search with different keywords. Articles attached to the case appear on the Articles related list, which also provides a Find Articles button to search the knowledge base at any time.

  1. From Setup, enter Support Settings in the Quick Find box, then select Support Settings.

  3. Choose each audience (channel) that receives suggested articles when submitting a case. Suggested articles are available for the internal app and the portals.
