    Note the following points while you are configuring the Knowledge feature on your Engagement Messenger module:
    • To add knowledge bases to your messenger module, verify that the knowledge_admin role is manually assigned to the user with Engagement Messenger admin [sn_csm_ec.ec_admin] role.
    • If the knowledge base that you added to the Engagement Messenger has no articles, then the homepage of the messenger UI does not display any knowledge article widget even when you select a value for the Show articles by and Article count fields.
    Note the following points regarding the live preview of Knowledge feature. However, the actual functionality of the feature is not affected when the Engagement Messenger is deployed in your website.
    • The list of articles that is shown in the messenger live preview depends on the application access that the knowledge_admin has to the articles.

      If the knowledge_admin does not have access to any articles, then no content is displayed in the preview. In such a case, only a title Featured articles or Most viewed articles is displayed.

    • Changing the value of the Show articles by field refreshes only the title and not the content in the messenger preview.
