Use this interactive demo to learn how to set up and connect a Help Center knowledge base in Intercom.

Quick summary

Integrating a knowledge base into Intercom lets support teams create a self-service Help Center where customers can find answers without contacting an agent. This guide covers the full setup — from creating collections to configuring styles and saving your Help Center settings.


Steps

  1. Head over to the left-side panel, then click 'Knowledge'.
  2. Choose 'Help Center' from the list of options.
  3. Click 'Set Up Your Help Center' to begin the configuration process.
  4. Select the categories you want to cover, then click 'Create Collections'.
  5. Review the layout of the selected collections and adjust their arrangement or add content as needed.
  6. Click 'Configure and Style' to proceed to the customization settings.
  7. Configure the general settings based on your preference by tapping each individual option and making your desired changes.
  8. Tap the 'Styling' tab and use the available options to build your preferred Help Center design.
  9. Once done, click 'Save and Close' to apply your changes.
  10. Your Help Center is now configured and integrated into your Intercom account — you can now add articles and guides to build your knowledge base.

📌 Why this matters

Integrating a knowledge base into Intercom allows support teams to deflect repetitive tickets by giving customers instant, self-service access to help articles and guides. A well-structured Intercom Help Center reduces resolution time, lowers support costs, and improves the overall customer experience. Teams can organize content into collections, apply custom styling, and publish a branded self-service portal without any technical setup. This makes Intercom's knowledge base integration essential for scaling customer support efficiently.
