Feedback

You can submit general and content feedback to Content Managers and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to help improve your organization’s library. Users can notify owners using content feedback that a content record needs an update. For example, to fix a typo in the file or the content does not show a product name change. General feedback, which is not for a specific record, can be used to request a new content record.

Note: Once created, replies to the content feedback displays on the Feedback panel as feedback threads. You can access the Feedback in the Details panel of the Library. For more information, see the Feedback in the Content Record Details Panel page.

To view all the feedback in one location, navigate to My Work > Feedback.
