# Articles

## **Overview**

The **Articles** feature allows you to create, manage, and organize detailed written content about your products or services. Unlike FAQs, which are short Q\&A entries, Articles support longer, structured content with multiple sections or headings.

This helps:

* Deliver **comprehensive explanations**.
* Improve **customer understanding and engagement**.
* Provide a strong **knowledge base** that the bot can use when answering queries.

**Step 3:** Use **Heading 1**, **Heading 2**, **Heading 3**, and normal paragraph formatting to divide your content into clear sections. This will help the bot learn more accurately.

## Article Status Definitions

* **Imported**: Successfully learned and added to the bot’s knowledge base.
* **In Queue**: Still processing.
* **Overlapped**: Content is similar or duplicated, requiring review.

***

## **Example / Use Case**

A product support bot includes Articles like:

* *How to integrate with Facebook/Meta Messenger*
* *Complete guide to using Premium Plan features*
* *Troubleshooting common order processing issues*

These enable the bot to provide **detailed, structured responses**, reducing repetitive support tickets.

***

## **Notes**

* Articles should be **well-structured** with clear headings for maximum readability.
* Avoid duplicating information from FAQs — use Articles for **longer, in-depth explanations**.
* Regularly review items marked as *In Queue* or *Overlapped*.
* Overlapped content should be cleaned up to prevent conflicts in bot knowledge.

***

## Quick Tips

* Start with 2–3 core guides (setup, troubleshooting, product features).
* Add images or links where helpful — visual content improves learning.
* Keep article titles **descriptive and searchable** (e.g., “How to reset your password”).

## Troubleshooting

* **Article not showing green check mark** → Wait or re-upload.
* **Duplicate/Overlapped status** → Edit content to avoid redundancy.
* **Bot gives partial answers** → Ensure headings and formatting are applied properly.
