Centralized media library for reusable assets in Help Center | Community
Skip to main content

In our Help Center articles, we use a consistent set of icons to visually guide users, for example, indicating where to click or when a link directs to an external source (see attached screenshots for reference). These icons appear across multiple articles, and from time to time, they may need to be updated.

Currently, updating these icons requires manually replacing them in every individual article where they are used. This process is time-consuming and introduces a risk of inconsistencies.

It would be incredibly helpful if Intercom offered a centralized image or document library, a place to manage all uploaded assets in one location. Ideally, this library would support dynamic linking, so that updates to an image or icon in the library would automatically reflect across all articles where it is used. This would significantly streamline content maintenance and ensure a consistent user experience.

 

Sorry, it seems that I posted this in the wrong forum. Should have been posted to the product wishlist.


@Daniel Rönnberg when this makes it's way to the Ideas in the Wishlist, I would 100% vote this up! 

 

I've always been surprised this didn't exist already as well, actually all kinds of reusable blocks as well as images would be amazing so you could update them once across everything. 

 

Similar to synced blocks in Notion.

 

One thing you might be able to do but it's not ideal is you can create and update articles via the API, if you add images this way they can be embedded with a url to your original images.  It's probably too tedious and requires a developer but if you've got that type of support it might be possible to pull the articles and do a search and replace for the images. Just thinking out loud here, I haven't tried this but theoretically it might be doable and could be worth it if there's a lot of icons to change. 

 

Even if they allowed to add an image via url in the editor instead of just uploaded images that would help in your situation because you could point them all to the external images and update those on your own servers when needed.
