Is it possible to report knowledge gap from other than Agent workspace

In order to create "knowlede gap" Knowledge Feedback Tasks, I know I can do that from Agent Workspace.

Is it possible to create the tasks from the default view of the incident?

If possible, how can I find the configration?

Hi,

I believe out of box, there isn't a feature that creates a knowledge feedback task, etc. but the way it works for incident is that you'd check the "knowledge" checkbox and then once the incident is closed, a draft knowledge article is created for review/edit and then can be published.

You can always create a UI Action for this that creates a knowledge feedback task for the platform UI.

And that only works well if the person closing the Incident adds good, useful, meaningful, knowledge article worthy notes... otherwise, garbage in/garbage out KB Drafts. (creating more work for the Author who's got to research the actual situation and find a solution and write it up well, or close/delete the Draft... oftentimes troublesome.)
Sure, your Agents are supposed to already be writing good ticket notes, but...

Hi,

That's a concern that you can position towards ServiceNow, perhaps in the Idea Portal

Otherwise, as I mentioned, you'd have to create this functionality for a concept of knowledge feedback tasks within the incident process. My reply was merely explaining the current functionality for the default platform incident to knowledge process.

Thanks for your reply though.

Allen, I'm sorry... I wasn't pointing that sharp stick at you. I was merely replying based on what we've seen with that function. Your explanation was totally fine. (Sorry... I didn't mean to come off like a jerk)
