How the Support Bot works
To provide you with the most focused experience, the Support Bot operates as a dedicated self-service guide.
- Direct support focus: The Support Bot is a specialized tool built specifically to surface Knowledge Base content. It functions independently rather than acting as a gateway to other chat agents. This ensures that your path to a documented solution is as fast as possible.
- Information over administration: While the Support Bot is an expert on platform "how-to," it does not have access to your private account, billing, or specific support ticket history. For updates on the status of an existing ticket or questions about ticket resolution, please visit the "My Requests" section under the Help menu on your admin portal.
Support Bot best practices
✔Do |
✖Don't |
|---|---|
| Be specific: Instead of saying "Field on form", try asking "How do I add a field to a form?" | DON'T input sensitive data: Avoid entering passwords, student information, or private contact lists. |
| Use keywords: Mention specific module names like Search & Reports or Billing to help the Support Bot narrow its search. | DON'T ask about ticket numbers: The Support Bot cannot provide updates on Request IDs or ticket statuses. Log in to the admin portal and click Help > My Requests for info about a specific request. |
| Ask one thing at a time: The Support Bot performs best when focusing on a single specific task per question. | DON'T use complex sentences: Simple, direct questions help the Support Bot identify your intent much faster. |
| Use copy and paste: Paste specific error messages or URL links directly for more accurate troubleshooting. | DON'T treat it like a live agent: The Support Bot is a knowledge expert but does not connect you to a live person in the chat. |
What happens if the Support Bot can’t find an answer?
If the Support Bot is unable to find a specific match for your question after a few tries, it won’t leave you guessing. It is programmed to automatically provide a link to our "How to contact support & best practices" article.
From there, you can easily submit a formal support request. This ensures that even if the answer isn't in our Knowledge Base yet, you are quickly directed to the right team of experts to get your resolution.
