To bad!
Our customer uses Swedish so the answer bot is not helping at all.
What other languages are you currently planning on supporting? Any nordic languages in the making?

What happens if a customer searches in a foreign language (German, French, Chinese, etc?) and all of our articles are in English only? Would Answer Bot still be able to suggest relevant articles?

Answer Bot uses language detection machine learning model to detect language based on the subject and description or the text used for emails. If your articles are in English and the customer wrote in a different language, it will not yield results.
Answer bot will also not yield results in the Web Widget but, it will failover to Help Center search to match the keywords used and offer articles matching the text entered.
Is there a plan to add Swedish?
Hey Henrik,
I double checked with our answer-bot team and it doesn't look like they have plans to add further language support at this time. I would recommend creating a feedback post in our Guide Community topic for our Product Managers to review your use case.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
