Users can now view or search the resources from Contentful in the Knowledge Base tab of the KC bot.

Note: All content types can be searched that have the main content (either RichText or Markdown) in a field with an ID of body. In addition, if there is a field with the ID of description, it is displayed as the article summary/description in the search results.

Add Tag Filters to Contentful Knowledge Base 

When you search Contentful articles from the KC Bot, all the articles that match your search term are displayed. However, Gainsight PX allows you to limit the scope of the search to a few articles by using tags.

Use a tag in your Contentful articles, that you want to be displayed on the KC bot. 

To limit the search scope, issue the API call:

aptrinsic('bot', 'search', {labels: ['test_label']});

Based on the above API call, only those articles which are assigned the test_label label are shown in the KC bot search. 

To clear the search labels, issue the API call:

aptrinsic('bot','search', { labels: [] });
