Getting Started with Advanced KB

Welcome to the advanced section of our Knowledge Base! This guide will help you quickly set up and begin leveraging the more powerful features of our system. Whether you're a seasoned developer or an enthusiastic user, we've designed this for clarity and efficiency.

1. Prerequisites

Before diving in, ensure you have the following:

A working installation of our core platform.
Administrative access to your KB instance.
Basic understanding of your system's architecture.

2. Initial Setup

The first step is to enable the advanced modules. Navigate to the Settings > Modules section in your admin panel and activate the desired advanced features.

Go to Settings, then click on Modules.

Locate the 'Advanced Features' section and toggle the switches for modules like 'API Access', 'Custom Roles', and 'Analytics Dashboard'.

Click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.

3. Accessing Advanced Features

Once enabled, new menu items will appear in your dashboard:

API Console: For testing and interacting with our REST API.
Role Manager: To define granular permissions for users.
Analytics Hub: To view detailed usage statistics and insights.

4. Your First API Call (Example)

Let's make a simple API call to retrieve a list of articles. You'll need an API key, which can be generated from the 'API Access' settings.

Using cURL:


curl -X GET \
  'https://your-kb-domain.com/api/v1/articles' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json'

This will return a JSON object containing article data. Refer to our API Integration guide for more details.
