Plain’s help center lets you publish self-serve articles for your customers, hosted either on a Plain subdomain or on your own custom domain. The help center API covers managing the content of a help center programmatically:
  • Articles — individual help pages with HTML content
  • Article groups — folders that organise articles in the navigation
  • The navigation index — the ordered tree of groups and articles that drives the help center sidebar
Use the API when you want to keep articles in sync with a docs-as-code workflow in your own git repo, or to bulk-author content from another source.
Help centers themselves (name, subdomain, branding, access, custom domains) are created and configured in the Plain app under Settings → Help center. The API only covers managing content within an existing help center.
