I am in the process of creating a large help center with long articles. We are organizing many of the articles (as suggested) with anchored links to the Heading 1s within the article at the article’s beginning. But creating the TOC at the top is very time consuming as you have to enter the TOC text, scroll down to copy the anchored link, scroll up to link the heading, scroll down again, etc. Is there a faster way to do this - i.e. - autogenerate a TOC for all heading 1s or at the very least, copy the heading text and link at the same time?

Hey @Andrea Riser! Daniel from Customer Support Engineering here 🔧I think that @Nathan Sudds’ answer sums the situation up well - though I’m wondering if you’d benefit from using our API to do this if the UI is too cumbersome? You can return a list of all articles, which will give you a JSON text form of all of their contents, and you could then use the update endpoint to make the relevant updates to the TOC. I know it’s not “automatic”, but I think it could be a little easier for you than clicking around in the UI! Let me know if it helps 🙌
