Managing Kubernetes comes with unique challenges specific to each environment. DevOps Engineers constantly have to remember custom settings and procedures unique to their specific setups, keeping track of intricate details and specific operational practices to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Now, Botkube Assistant allows you to integrate your team or company's own documentation into the troubleshooting workflow. This new integration doesn't just add a personal touch; it dramatically enhances the troubleshooting process, ensuring that solutions are tailored to your team’s specific operational requirements. Botkube transforms generic assistance into tailored, actionable advice by tapping into your own reference docs, process guides, technical documents, runbooks, and on-call procedures — all searchable through natural language queries with Botkube Assistant.

Why Use Custom Documentation with Botkube Assistant

The integration of personalized documentation such as reference docs, process guides, technical documentation, runbooks, and on-call procedures allows Botkube to provide tailored assistance that works seamlessly with your organization's operational needs. By utilizing your own docs, you ensure that recommendations or guidance is grounded in the specific context and practices of your environment.

Pairing your team’s custom documentation with Botkube Assistant's AI features creates a powerful combination for troubleshooting errors in your environment.
