Explainer

A help center is a public, self-service website where anyone can search the Knowledge articles you choose to share, and use a contact form when they can't find an answer. An Experience Cloud site can go further: customers can log in (which requires Experience Cloud licenses), and it supports more advanced functionality. The design choice depends on whether customers must log in and how much the site needs to do beyond sharing articles.
Core information
  • A help center is a public-access, self-service site. Visitors find answers in the Knowledge articles you make available instead of filing cases, so the load on the support team drops.
More details and nuances
  • The Help Center template has limited support for standard components. Only specific object pages are fully supported (File Detail, File List and Related Record List), although you can create other standard and custom object pages. Its template pages are Home, Contact Support, Error, Search, Topic Catalog and Topic Detail.
