Private help center
Herodesk BasicDocumentation for the right eyes.
Make a help center private with a password or an IP allow-list, with a login step on the customer site. Perfect for internal documentation or content only your customers should see.
The problem
Not everything should be public
Onboarding guides for paying customers, internal process documentation, pricing detail for partners: real content that should not be sitting in Google’s index.
- Internal documentation living in a tool nobody outside IT can reach
- Customer-only guides that would be visible to competitors
- No way to gate content without building a login
- Sensitive material published publicly because it was easier
Why teams love it
Gated content without a project
Two straightforward controls turn the help center you already run into a private one.
- Customer-only content
- Publish onboarding and account documentation that only the people paying you can read.
- Internal docs that people find
- Use the same authoring tools your team already knows for process documentation that stays internal.
- No login to build
- The access step lives on the customer site: you do not have to develop authentication yourself.
- Handled securely
- The password is masked and never written to the audit log.
What’s inside
Two ways to lock it
Use whichever fits: a shared password, an IP allow-list, or both.
- Password protection
- Put the whole help center behind a password you share with the people who should have it.
- IP allow-list
- Restrict access to specific addresses, so an internal help center only opens on your network.
- Login step on the site
- Visitors get a proper access step on the customer-facing site before they see any content.
- Password never logged
- The password is masked in settings and is never stored in the audit log.
- Per help center
- Run a public help center and a private one side by side from the same account.
- Same authoring tools
- Categories, drafts, SEO fields, search and translations all work exactly as they do publicly.
