What are Articles and Blocks?

In Atobi, we often refer to Articles and Blocks, so let’s clarify what we are talking about 🕵️

An Article is any content you are building and publishing in your organization. It is composed of a set of building blocks 🏗️ that gives you the flexibility to create what you need, such as:

• Product update info with videos 📹 and pdfs 🖇️
• Product recall news with a todo list ✔️
• Training material 📚
• Campaign roll-outs 📝
• Or all of the above in one 💪

The benefit of Articles and blocks is that you can quickly gather all relevant information, requirements, expectations, questions, and actions in a single place!

But What is a Block?

Each Article consists of blocks. Think of them like LEGO bricks that give you the freedom to build your imagination.

There are different types of blocks, such as: Text, video, pdf, files, article links, and action blocks. Action blocks is where Atobi shines. There are different types of action blocks that all empowers you to push your expectations to all your store staff and gather data back. Some of the actions are:

• Tasks: request employees to complete a task and add a deadline if its needed.
• Media tasks: request employees to share a picture from the store.
• Quiz: test employees' knowledge about a topic.
• Open Question: gather employees' opinions on a topic.

For all actions, you can add a deadline and adjust settings, such as Category, Privacy, if it's Mandatory or not, and more. It might sound complex, but don't worry about not knowing everything right away. You can take it step by step.

What can I use it for?

By combining actions, text, videos, and PDFs, only your imagination is the limit.

🚀 By combining tasks, quizzes, and media tasks, you can build a campaign roll-out with relevant information, test staff's product knowledge, and a complete to-do list of how to implement it.

📸 By combining PDFs and media tasks, you can share your VM guidelines and request staff to share pictures of how they followed the guide.

❓By mixing videos and quizzes, you can build a training program and test the staff's knowledge.

And the list goes on...

When creating an Article, you can invite Collaborators to help you finalize or translate it.

Articles are published to Audiences 🧑🏿‍🤝‍🧑🏻.

One of the main benefits of using Atobi Articles is that your audience members can quickly find what they need by browsing their Channels. With Channels, you can easily organize articles on themes, topics, campaigns, or whatever you need.

Table of contents

Now on web app you can see a table of contents that will be generated automatically in published articles based on headings and subheadings.

What can you use this for?

If you have long articles the table of contents will be very helpful since it will provide you with a clear and structured overview of the article's content.
