The Knowledge Center article editor has editing tools that help in formatting knowledge article content such as text, images, and media.

The toolbar within the article editor contains an array of icons that enable you to edit and format the text content of your knowledge article. You can also use the editor to add images, links, audio, and video to the knowledge
article.
