Reason for Zendesk's Restricted Content Support for Bots

Understand why Zendesk introduced restricted content support for bots, enhancing their ability to resolve more use-cases automatically.

Why did Zendesk introduce restricted content support for bots?

Zendesk introduced restricted content support for bots to expand the range of use-cases that can be resolved automatically. This change was driven by customer feedback requesting the ability for bots to access restricted help center articles, particularly for employee experience use-cases and based on Guide user segments.

By allowing bots to use restricted content, Zendesk aims to enhance the self-service capabilities of its bots, enabling them to provide more comprehensive and relevant responses to user inquiries. This update reflects Zendesk's commitment to improving the functionality and versatility of its bot solutions.
