## Cited GrowthDex tactics

- [Multiple portals for separate support audiences](/growth-ideas/multiple-portals-for-separate-support-audiences/) - Run separate portal surfaces for different audiences from one workspace so customers, prospects, and partners stop tripping over the same support and feedback path.
- [AI chat weekly doc-gap report](/growth-ideas/ai-chat-weekly-doc-gap-report/) - Use AI support questions as a publishing queue by reviewing the weekly docs-gap report and updating the article that should have answered the question.
- [Bulk publish imported release history after review](/growth-ideas/bulk-publish-imported-release-history-after-review/) - Review imported release notes once, then publish the backlog in bulk so the new changelog starts life with visible proof instead of an empty archive.
- [Direct article open from product widget](/growth-ideas/direct-article-open-from-product-widget/) - Add product-side triggers that open a specific help article inside the support widget instead of sending the user into a generic docs homepage.
- [Docs live only after first published article](/growth-ideas/docs-live-only-after-first-published-article/) - Do not launch an empty help center shell. Publish the docs surface only after at least one article can solve a real job and be linked from the product.
- [Dry-run validation before support-data import](/growth-ideas/dry-run-validation-before-support-data-import/) - Run a dry validation step before importing Zendesk or Productboard data so bad credentials and incompatible fields fail before the migration starts.
- [Help-center importer before portal rewrite](/growth-ideas/help-center-importer-before-portal-rewrite/) - Move your existing markdown or CSV help center into the new portal first, then improve the archive in place instead of rewriting every article before launch.
- [Import changelog history into reviewable drafts](/growth-ideas/import-changelog-history-into-reviewable-drafts/) - When you move docs or support systems, import old release notes as drafts first so history survives without publishing raw archive noise onto the new portal.
- [In-app changelog notifications at the moment of use](/growth-ideas/in-app-changelog-notifications-at-the-moment-of-use/) - Push release notes inside the product widget so updates meet active users while the job is in front of them, instead of hoping an email blast gets opened later.
- [One main feature story per changelog entry](/growth-ideas/one-main-feature-story-per-changelog-entry/) - Frame each changelog around one important shipped feature, then tuck the smaller updates beneath it instead of making every release note carry equal weight.
- [Preserve the created-at timeline on imported feedback](/growth-ideas/preserve-created-at-timeline-on-imported-feedback/) - Map the original created-at timestamp when importing historical notes so support and product teams read the feedback in the right order later.
- [Remap or skip custom fields during changelog import](/growth-ideas/remap-or-skip-custom-fields-during-changelog-import/) - Use field mapping during release-history import instead of cleaning every legacy export by hand before the move.
- [Two-level help-center navigation cap](/growth-ideas/two-level-help-center-navigation-cap/) - Limit public help-center navigation to two layers so the archive stays shallow enough to scan, maintain, and crawl.
- [JWT-authenticated support widget with portal handoff](/growth-ideas/jwt-authenticated-support-widget-with-portal-handoff/) - Sign support users into the widget with a short-lived JWT so every conversation is tied to a real account and the portal opens without a second login.
- [Linear owner auto-assignment for account threads](/growth-ideas/linear-owner-auto-assignment-for-account-threads/) - Route incoming customer threads to the account owner already stored in Linear so the person with relationship context sees the request first.
- [Page context passed into the support AI widget](/growth-ideas/page-context-passed-into-the-support-ai-widget/) - Pass the current page or feature context into the support widget so AI answers start from what the user is already trying to do.
