Is there any plan to allow Light Agents to have this access in the future? Or be able to provide access on a per-user basis? There are certain people in my organization who should not have full Guide Editor or Agent access, but help with editing articles, so they have Light Agent permissions assigned now. I'd love for them to be able to edit content blocks as well.

So giving permission to agents to edit/create content block is not granular to specific agents, but all agents can or all agents cannot be allowed to edit content blocks. Is that correct?

Hi Jay,

Yes, that is correct. It is all Agents or none. Would you mind posting your use case to our Feedback on Help Center (Guide) topic? We have a template you can copy and use in your post. This is to help get more visibility and votes on the idea. Then, others can share their use cases to further drive demand for that feature. Thanks!

If permission to edit Content Blocks is revoked, can agents still unlink a Content Block they've added to an article?

Hello Nikki,
 
If permission to edit Content Blocks is revoked in Zendesk, agents will generally lose the ability to manage content blocks, which includes editing, adding, and unlinking them. Specifically, revoking permission to edit content blocks means agents cannot make changes to the content within the blocks or add new content blocks. Additionally, unlinking a content block is considered a form of editing. Therefore, without permission to edit content blocks, agents will likely be unable to unlink a content block they have previously added to an article. Overall, the control over content blocks, including linking and unlinking, typically requires edit permissions.
