Using Zendesk tags to filter HelpHub content to certain users​

Read here for an overview of Zendesk tags.

We automatically import your Zendesk tags. You can use these in HelpHub so that the user only sees a subset of your docs.

When would this make sense? Let’s say you have 3 products (A, B, and C) that are all included in your documentation and tagged accordingly. Your user has access to products A and B. You might want to only show docs to that user for products A and B, but not for product C.

You can use the SDK method setHelpHubFilter to implement this.

window.CommandBar.setHelpHubFilter({ labels: ["Product_A", "Product_B"] });

Note: Zendesk tags can only be updated in Zendesk, not in Command AI.
