FAQ

FAQ

Common questions about using the AI agent.

It exports published Tawk.to Help Center content, including categories and articles, converting each article to a Markdown (.md) file and organizing files by category in Google Drive. The export preserves the article content with a clean Markdown format, including headings and basic formatting. It does not export unpublished or restricted content unless explicitly permitted. The process creates a structured folder hierarchy that mirrors the Help Center's organization. You can customize the export scope to include specific categories and articles.

No dedicated API access is required for exporting published content. The AI agent reads publicly available Help Center data directly and uses standard authentication configured in the integration layer. If you have restricted access, you can grant the necessary read permissions or provide a service account. The setup ensures secure access and auditability for compliance.

Yes. The agent targets published articles within each category. It respects category visibility and article status to avoid exporting drafts or unpublished items. If needed, you can explicitly include or exclude items based on status during scope definition. The export can be re-run to update Markdown files if content changes.

The agent checks existing Markdown files in the selected Drive destination before writing. If a file with the same name exists, it either skips, versions, or updates based on your configuration. This prevents overwriting and keeps a clean, auditable history. The manifest can be used to verify which articles were exported.

Yes. The Markdown output can preserve headings, bold and italic formatting, links, and code blocks where applicable. You can adjust the converter’s rules to handle images and attachments as inline links or separate assets. The export process ensures consistent syntax across all articles for easy publishing and migration.

The core design is modular and not tied to Drive. You can adapt the agent to export Markdown to other destinations like Notion, GitHub, or Dropbox with minimal adjustments. Each destination will maintain the same folder/structure logic and de-dup rules. If you have a preferred CMS, the agent can be extended to publish content there.

There is no hard limit within the agent itself, but practical constraints depend on your Google Drive quota and your N8N plan. Large exports may require chunking or staged runs. The agent can resume from where it left off in subsequent runs, ensuring progress is not lost. You can monitor performance and adjust timeouts or concurrency as needed.
