Knowledge Base

My team has been adding documentation to the knowledge base (FAQ) for our end users. A problem that I have noticed is that I cannot copy the link to specific pages in the FAQ, the link always defaults to the same page. Is there a way to get a link directly to the KB article?I cannot copy/paste the URL to a knowledgebase article to send a user directly to the document.This is particularly a problem with announcements of new features and supporting documentation that is sent via other platforms (email). I cannot include a link for users to click to quickly access the documentation. Is this functionality missing or am I missing something?Thank you!

What is the limit for knowledge base article attachments?  I am trying to attach webinar videos and it cuts them off.  I tried to attach as a zip and the end users can’t download.  I know the answer is front of me, but I can’t figure it out.

We have a template that ask some customer questions for new software request. We want this to go to a Request items, which it does, but we cannot view or edit the details. If we convert it to a request, we can edit and see the details we need from the custom list which were generated from the Service Record field.Does anyone know how to design form for the request tab? We want to customize the order and the items in red. There is no form button in the upper right like the incidents tab.  

Hello SysMates, In a passing conversation with one of you I was asked how to set up permissions for Knowledgebase articles, and thought I’d share here too for more to enjoy 😎1. Go to:Settings > General > checkbox "Limit access to Knowledge Base articles by category permissions" Check box + click "save" at the bottom  Once this is saved in the settings, permissions defined for SysAid Categories will apply to Knowledgebase articles as well. To define permissions for categories got to: Settings > Categories > Choose Category to edit In each Category: Check the box “Visible in SSP for user groups” and add what user groups should have access Check the box “Visible for admin groups” and add what user groups should have access  Click “Done” to save your changes That's it! Any new article created will inherit these permissions according to its category moving forward.Cheers, 

Is there a way to link a knowledge base article to a ticket?  Right now we are relying on techs to add a knowledge base article number to the resolution so we can tell if an issue was fixed using one of the articles already created. This would allow other techs to see if a specific article was used to fix an issue by looking at old tickets.

Is there an easy way to delete multiple FAQs in the knowledgebase as well as move items to new categories. I am trying to clean up an existing knowledgebase with older articles and I want to reorganize it but the process of working on one at a time is very tedious. 

Question:When I click on a Sharefile link that was in an email that was forwarded to me I get Access Denied.Answer:Links that are sent from Sharefile are unique to the user that they are sent to.If you have access to the folder of the user that forwarded you the link you can log in to Sharefile and find the item in there, but you will not be able to retrieve it using the link.If you also get a link directly from Sharefile when items are uploaded for that user the link in the email that was sent directly to you from Sharefile will work.
