Knowledge Base article templates allow you to define a set of formatting which is applied to an article when a user directly edits the article. Templates can also be chosen when an article is created from the Ticket Update screen, modifying how the created article displays.
Defining a Template to use during Ticket Updates
When you define a knowledge base article template, you can select one of the following template tags to include in the body of the article template:
- TicketTitle
- TicketDescription
- TicketUpdate
When the template is used during a ticket update, the Title, Description, and Update Text will be inserted in place of the respective template tag.

Using Templates during Ticket Update
To use an article template in a ticket:
- When updating a ticket, scroll to the Knowledge Base Article attribute.
- Select Create new article.
- Click the KB Article Template attribute and select the article template.
- Complete the rest of your ticket updates as usual and click Save.
