Docs live in Drive
Every Autodocs guide is a folder in your company’s Autodocs Drive, so Drive search, sharing, versions and the trash all work on it.
THE PROBLEM
Documentation silos are their own problem
A docs tool with its own storage is one more place to search, permission and back up. Autodocs stores every guide in Autessa Drive.
Every Autodocs guide is a folder in the company Autodocs Drive: the article, its step pictures and its details, with Drafts and Knowledge base folders.
How it works
How does docs live in drive work in Autodocs?
- 1
Autodocs makes an Autodocs Drive
For the company, the first time it is used.
- 2
Each doc is a folder
Holding article.md, its step pictures and meta.json with its details.
- 3
Drafts and Knowledge base folders
Drafts under /Drafts, published docs under /Knowledge base.
- 4
Drive does the rest
Search, sharing, file versions and the trash all apply.
Options and settings
Every option, in one table
| File | Contents |
|---|---|
| article.md | The guide in Markdown. |
| step-01.jpg … | One picture per step, element highlighted. |
| meta.json | The doc’s details: title, status, workflow and agent. |
| Scope | Autodocs only reads and writes folders under Drafts or the Knowledge base, never the rest of the Drive. |
Who can do what
Permissions
| Who | Can |
|---|---|
| Anyone with access to the Autodocs Drive | Reads the docs there through Drive, Drive search and chatbots that use that Drive. |
| People whose role can use agents | Open Autodocs, record workflows, write, edit and publish docs. |
AI assist
Where AI helps
AI is used where it saves you work and is always visible: it writes the guide from your recording, and it finds elements that moved during a replay, marking those steps healed. You stay in charge of what gets published.
