## Attach an Article

Search for and attach articles to a record from the Articles related list, the Knowledge One console widget, or the Knowledge component in Lightning Experience.

- _In Salesforce Classic:_ In the Articles related list on a record, click **Find Article** to search for an article, and then attach it.
- _In the Salesforce Classic console:_ To attach articles to work types, use the Articles related list on the work type. To attach articles to work orders or work order line items, use the Knowledge One widget or the Articles related list.
- _In Lightning Experience and the Lightning Experience console:_ In the Knowledge component on a record, search for the article and then attach it.

## View an Attached Article

Attached articles appear in the Articles related list, Knowledge Lightning component, and Knowledge One console widget. View an article by clicking its title. If feed tracking for related lists is enabled, you can navigate to attached articles from the record feed.

On article detail pages in Salesforce Classic, the Linked Work Orders and Linked Work Order Line Items related lists show the records that an article is attached to. A Linked Work Types related list isn’t available.

## Update an Attached Article

To publish a new version of an article, open the article and click **Edit**.

When you attach an article to a work order or work order line item, that version of the article stays associated with the record even if later versions are published. If needed, detach and reattach an article to ensure that the record is linked to the latest version of the article. The Linked Article Version field on the linked article detail page leads to the attached version.
