Bot builder’sShow help center articlesstep recommends specific help center articles to your customers that may help them self-solve their questions. If you have public and restricted articles (articles requiring end users to log in), you can configure which articles to show anonymous (unauthenticated) end users and which to show for authenticated end users.
You may want to restrict help center articles so only your internal employees and agents can view them. Or, restrict content so that only end users who have purchased your product or service can access your help center articles.
Suggesting restricted help center articles in a bot answer is available on all plans that can use Messaging.
This article includes the following topics:
Restricted help center article overview
- Bot handles anonymous user queries and shares public help center articles
Bot handles authenticated user queries and shares restricted help center articles
- Bot handles anonymous and authenticated user queries, builds conditions based on whether the user is authenticated, and shows all articles to authenticated users and only public articles to unauthenticated users
Authentication is based onmessaging authentication with JWT.
If the end user is authenticated with messaging JSON Web Token (JWT), we will check if they can access the article based on the article permission rules and theuser segment他们的一部分。如果最终用户访问的rticle preview is shown. Only the placeholder preview is shown if the end user is not part of the user segment.
If the end user is anonymous or authenticated through SSO or Zendesk authentication, the link to the restricted article is displayed in the bot message, but the title and preview are not displayed.
Showing the title of restricted help center articles
By default, restricted help center article titles and previews are not shown to users not authenticated with messaging JWT. Only the link is shown.
You can, however, configure your bot to show the title and preview of restricted help center articles to all users, regardless of which authentication method is used or whether they are anonymous.

Hi James,
Is there a more specific timeline for this feature? Our org uses restricted articles only and currently I am unable to build an effective bot in the flow builder.
Thanks
