Knowledge Base Integrations
Reduce friction for your employees with single sign-on and other integrations
We all have too many usernames and passwords to remember. With single sign-on, you can simplify the login process for your employees by allowing them to log into ScreenSteps via the applications your business already uses.
ScreenSteps supports the SAML authentication protocol, allowing you to integrate with many single sign-on providers, including Office 365, GSuite, Okta, OneLogin, Salesforce, and many others.
No more flipping back and forth between web browser tabs to get the information you need. Gain immediate access to answers with context-sensitive help.
After integrating the ScreenSteps Browser Extension, simply click the blue bell logo on the side of your screen. Based on where your employee is working in the application, they will see guides to help them complex simple or complex tasks.
If you need custom integrations, you can use the ScreenSteps API to manage your content, publish it to 3rd party platforms, or manage/provision your users.
Here are some ways that our customers use our APIs:
Sometimes you just need your ScreenSteps content to show up in a web application that you already use. Using iFrames, you can embed your entire ScreenSteps site or individual articles. ScreenSteps will automatically strip out headers and footers so that the ScreenSteps content is displayed appropriately in the iframe.
Yes. Using our APIs you can publish content from ScreenSteps to a 3rd-party knowledge base. We have customers that integrate with a variety of knowledge bases and content management systems.
But you should be aware that you will need to have access to a developer or be a developer yourself to build a publishing integration with a 3rd-party knowledge base. Our team can advise you on what things you would need to consider when integrating with a 3rd-party system.
Yes, you can export your content as PDFs or use our API to export your content as HTML files.
The answer is, it depends. Each integration need is unique and it depends on what you want to accomplish.
If you are trying to embed content in 3rd-party applications then we suggest using our ScreenSteps Browser Extension.
If you want to make it easier for employees to access your ScreenSteps content, use single sign-on.
If you need to do something more advanced, then use our API.
Talk to a member of our team about what you want to accomplish and we can suggest the best option for you.
Once again, it depends. Talk to a member of our team about what you want to accomplish. We will give you an honest answer as to whether this is something we can help you with, something you will need to do on your own, or if what you want to do simply isn't possible with ScreenSteps.
With an online searchable knowledge base integrated into your company’s software, you decrease mistakes and increase accuracy.
