Synced knowledge base

When you create a copy of a knowledge base, you can choose to make that a synced copy.

Selecting this option will:

  • Create the new (child or clone) knowledge base.
  • Create all the top-level categories of the original/parent knowledge base as Shared content categories in the child knowledge base.

This keeps all the top-level categories and all of the articles they contain in sync.

However, the cloned knowledge base will not automatically get cloned copies of new top-level categories created in the original knowledge base moving forward.

New top-level categories not auto-synced
When you create a new top-level category in the original knowledge base after you've created the synced KB, you'll need to manually create a new Shared content categories in the clone knowledge base.

For more details on how edits, content creation, and syncing happen, refer to Shared content categories.
