Creating Content Blocks from Articles in Zendesk
Can you create a content block directly from an article in Zendesk?
Yes, you can create a content block directly from an article in Zendesk. This is done by selecting the content you want to reuse and clicking the content block icon in the toolbar. The selected content, whether a paragraph or a section, becomes a reusable block.
When creating a content block from an article, it assumes the article's locale. You can format the content using various options, and once created, the block is stored independently for reuse. This feature allows you to maintain consistency across articles by reusing common content.
