Revoking Agent Permissions for Content Blocks in Zendesk
What happens if an agent's permission to edit content blocks is revoked?
If an agent's permission to edit content blocks is revoked in Zendesk Guide, they will lose the ability to manage content blocks. This includes editing, adding, and unlinking content blocks. Unlinking a content block is considered a form of editing, so without the necessary permissions, agents will not be able to unlink a content block they previously added to an article. Control over content blocks requires edit permissions, which are essential for managing these elements effectively.
