Flagging Articles Without a Ticket in Zendesk

Understand why you need a ticket to flag articles in Zendesk. Explore potential workarounds for direct article flagging.

Can I flag articles directly in the knowledge base without a ticket?

Currently, you cannot flag articles directly in the knowledge base without opening a ticket. The Knowledge Capture app requires you to open or create a ticket to flag an article. This means that agents need to work within the ticketing system to provide feedback on articles.

While there are no native functions in the Guide for direct article flagging, you might find community posts with potential workarounds or workflows to achieve similar results.
