The ScreenSteps Browser Extension is an add-on to select plans. If you don't currently have access but are interested in adding it to your plan, please reach out to <[email protected]>.
Once you get the browser extension installed, you can also create Channels so that the extension serves up specific articles on specific web application pages.
1. Navigate to web app where you need contextual help > click extension
- Navigate to any web application where you need contextual help. In the example below, I'm in HubSpot > Reports.
- Click the ScreenSteps extension
2. Click Settings > Create Channel
The extension will open up. Click Settings at the bottom of the extension, followed by + Create Channel.
3. Enter Information > Create a channel
- Enter a name for your channel (make it descriptive)
- Make any modifications to the channel mapping pattern. Mapping patterns are regular expression patterns so you can use
.*
to match portions of a url. For example, the mapping patternapp\.domain\.tld/.*/import
would match on eitherhttps://app.domain.tld/q361z/import
orhttps://app.domain.tld/a235q/import
. - Check the box to go to the channel (where you will add articles)
- Click Create
