The problem

Why it matters

A knowledge base quickly goes out of date: revised procedures, new offerings, withdrawn documents. Manual updates get forgotten.

On the other hand, automatically publishing every change can expose a document that has not been approved.

In practice

  1. Choose a sourceShared folder, FTP/FTPS or SFTP server, website.
  2. ScheduleManual, every N minutes, daily, weekly or a cron expression with a time zone.
  3. Decide how to publishAutomatically, after human approval, or conditionally (for example, if more than 50 documents change).
  4. TrackRun history, version comparison, webhook notification.
