Articles management
3+
===================
4+
5+
Managing articles effectively is key to maximizing the value of your knowledge resources, whether
6+
working on a research project, studying for an exam, or building a knowledge database for your
7+
business. Knowledge allows you to fully manage your articles, from
8+
:ref:`creation <management/create>` to :ref:`removal <management/remove>`, through :ref:`sharing
9+
<management/share>` and :ref:`structure <management/structure>`.
10+
11+
You can find most tools to manage articles by clicking the vertical ellipsis button (:guilabel:``)
12+
at the right side of the top bar. From there, you can move, lock, delete, or duplicate an article.

Creation, sharing, and removal of articles
18+
==========================================
19+
20+
.. _management/create:
21+
22+
Creation
23+
--------
24+
25+
To create articles, click the :guilabel:`+ New` button on the right side of the top bar or the
26+
:guilabel:`+` button next to a category or another article.
27+
28+
.. tip::
29+
Create private articles quickly with the Alt/Option + C keyboard shortcut.
30+
31+
.. _management/share:
32+
33+
Sharing
34+
-------
35+
36+
You can share articles with internal or external users. To do so, open the share menu by clicking
37+
:guilabel:`Share` in the top-right menu of articles.
38+
39+
Invite users
40+
~~~~~~~~~~~~
41+
42+
To share articles with specific users (internal or external, such as a partner or a customer), click
43+
:guilabel:`Invite`. This opens a pop-up window in which you can choose the :guilabel:`Permission`
44+
:ref:`(i.e, access rights) <management/categories>` and enter the :guilabel:`Recipients`' name or
45+
email.
46+
47+
You can also restrict a specific user from accessing the article by selecting :guilabel:`No access`
48+
permission.
49+
50+

51+

52+
53+
Share online
54+
~~~~~~~~~~~~
55+
56+
To share articles **online**, activate the :guilabel:`Share to web` button. Doing so generates a URL
57+
link anyone can use to view the article.
58+
59+
Additionally, the share menu displays the default permission for internal members along with all the
60+
users who have been granted specific permission.

64+
65+
.. _management/remove:
66+
67+
Removal
68+
-------
69+
70+
To remove an article, you can either **delete** it or **archive** it.
71+
72+
To delete an article, open it and click the vertical ellipsis button :menuselection:`(⋮) -->
73+
Delete`. The article is moved to the trash for 30 days before being permanently deleted. To restore
74+
it, click :guilabel:`Open the Trash`, select the article, and click :guilabel:`Restore`.
75+
76+
To archive articles, click :guilabel:`Search`, select the article(s), and click
77+
:menuselection:`Action --> Archive --> Archive`. Archived articles are hidden from the search menu.
78+
To retrieve an archived article, add a custom filter to display them (:menuselection:`Search -->
79+
Filters --> Add Custom Filter`, and set :guilabel:`Active` as :guilabel:`is No`). Then, select the
80+
article(s) and go to :menuselection:`Action --> Unarchive`.
81+
82+
.. _management/structure:
83+
84+
Structure of articles
85+
=====================
86+
87+
Articles are organized into a hierarchical structure wherein the article on top is a parent article,
88+
and those underneath are called nested articles. This structure allows the grouping of related
89+
articles.
90+
91+
To establish this hierarchy, create new articles by clicking the :guilabel:`+` button next to the
92+
parent-to-be article, or move existing articles by either dragging and dropping them under the
93+
parent-to-be or by clicking the vertical ellipsis button (:guilabel:``), clicking :guilabel:`Move
94+
To` on the toolbox and selecting the article to use as a parent.
95+
96+
.. _management/categories:
97+
98+
Categories
99+
----------
100+
101+
Additionally, articles are divided into four categories that can be found on the left sidebar. These
102+
categories give articles default **access rights**.
103+
104+
- :guilabel:`Favorites`: You can set any article you can access as a favorite. To do so, click the
105+
star-shaped icon (:guilabel:``) in the top-right menu of articles. Marking articles as
106+
**favorites** is user-specific and does not affect other users.
107+
- :guilabel:`Workspace`: Articles displayed in that category are available to all internal users.
108+
These users have the right to read, modify or share these articles.
109+
- :guilabel:`Shared`: Articles displayed in that category are those you shared with internal users,
110+
external users, or shared with you.
111+
- :guilabel:`Private`: Articles displayed in that category are only available to you.
