Article Template - Hide Field

Lesley W

Has anyone used ACLs/Encryption to hide fields on Knowledge Article Templates?

 

I'm looking for examples on how this works as we're looking into Staff articles including a field only visible to Agents so that we can reduce the number of "duplicate" articles and promote posting in the Staff Knowledge Base more.

 

I can find the documentation - https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/washingtondc-servicenow-platform/page/product/knowledge-managemen...

 

But can't see any examples or demos?

Just looked at this and this field isn't on our templates 😔

I can't see it in the form builder fields either.

Wil have our DEVs continue to look into it.

Did you get any workaround for this requirement 

This question also interests me.

We did this. I created a custom KCS template and made several fields only visible to our IT department, while the rest of the article is visible to all employees. I did this by applying ACLs to each restricted field. Each ACL is tied to a custom role, which is then embedded in other roles, such as the Knowledge role, to allow access as desired.
