Add labels to knowledge base articles

Labels are keywords that you can add to your existing knowledge base articles to make it easier for your customers to find relevant articles when they need them. When customers search in the help center or raise a request using keywords similar to the labels, they get improved article suggestions.

For example, you could add the ‘onboarding’ label to all articles related to new hire onboarding. That would make it easier to display and search for related articles.

Adding labels also helps your agents find and share relevant articles while working on an issue.

Labels can also be used to show related knowledge base articles in the portal using the filter by label macro.
