As of March 2026, Knowledge Center Bot is now called In-App Hub. Refer to the announcement for more details. This article reflects the updated name, but some images and videos may still display the previous name and will be updated soon.

This article explains how to configure Gainsight Customer Communities(CC) with Gainsight PX, to add Customer Communities content in In-App Hub.

Overview 

This article explains how to integrate Gainsight PX with Gainsight Customer Communities(CC) to access In-App Hub articles. Customer Communities is an interactive platform which helps customers and Gainsight’s internal teams to share and discuss feedback, queries, and suggestions on the technical enhancements and latest product updates. When PX is configured with Customer Communities, in-app In-App Hubs help you to deploy personalized content (such as onboarding or adoption checklists, key resources including FAQ or best practice articles) directly in your application. For more information refer to the Customer Communities website.

Prerequisite

You must have CC Admin Console credentials to generate API Base URL, Client ID, and Client Secret to configure the integration.

  1. In the Configuration section, enter the Community Domain, API Base URL, Client ID, and Client Secret generated in the Gainsight CC Console. The integration fetches open categories by default, it is recommended to provide the Author ID to fetch all the categories that the specific author has permission for and then configure the In-App Hub to show specific categories. You can fetch the Author ID in the following two ways:
  • Use the following API and filter by email of the user. From the response, take the userid which is the authorID of the specific user. 
  • From the community profile URL, the last four numbers indicate the Author ID.
