Dynamically Select Google Search Knowledge Base URL for each Bot

@aharkut - This is a start, but it would be better to be able to override the search domain at the KC bot level. We will have a different KC bot for each product version and want each KC bot to find content in the applicable product-version doc space. 

Hi @mmarques, the release that we have enables you to configure the search domain at KCBot level. I assume, each product-version would have a different search domain, if yes then that could be configured at every Bot.

Or, am I missing something here which you feel is not answered in the release. Happy to get on a call/ email to understand this use-case in detail.

@aharkut - The current setup is that I add all the search domains at the integration configuration, and then in the KC bot, I select the search domain. I would prefer to type the search domain in on the KC bot. There are a couple of reasons:

• We want to be able to have the search domain to the specific directory applicable to the product and version. Imagine 12 products (with more to be added later) and 2 - 4 versions per year. The selection list will grow extremely long over time. Here is a screenshot where I added the directory for a product level, but did not go down to the version level:

  

   

• Only administrators can add the search domains. I would like the team members creating KC bots to be add the search domain applicable to that KC bot without relying on me or one of the few administrators.

@mmarques Understood - we will look into it.

@aharkut - I discovered an issue with the current implementation. I configured 7 search domains, but only the first 6 are visible on screen. I have to blindly scroll to the 7th.

Thanks for pointing this out @mmarques , will get a quick UX Fix done here.

We have implemented the search successfully. However, the search results are not the same as when we search the actual knowledge base. 

For exmaple, if I search on “VAT” via the Knowledge bot, I get 7 results. If I do the same search on our help centre domain, I get 38 results. I search on “subscription” and I get nothing, even though there are articles with that keyword in both th H1 and body text. Any thoughts? Is this expected and if so, are you looking to improve? We may need to remove the KC bot because the search is so poor.

Thanks for posting to PX Community @Tracymack !

You can verify the results using Google Advanced Search using the very same Search Domain and Search text, since this is what PX KC Bot is using. 

If the results are different, then definitely create a PX Support ticket (pxsupport@gainsight.com) so this can be investigated and resolved.

@mmarques a scroll has been introduced in the Search domains section.

@aharkut - I look forward to your fix of the scroll showing up. I didn’t yet see it, but I guess it takes a while for the fix to roll out to all production environments.
