Using the helpdesk sidebar

Zendesk, Intercom, and HubSpot display a Screendesk sidebar panel directly within the ticket or conversation view. The sidebar gives you quick access to the following actions.

Send a video from the library

Use this to share a pre-made video — such as a how-to guide or FAQ walkthrough — without recording a new one.

1

Click "Send from Library"

In the Screendesk sidebar, click Send from Library (shown with a library icon). The sidebar expands to display the library search view.

2

Search for the right video

Type a video title in the search bar to find a specific recording. You can also search by tag using the #tagname syntax (e.g., #onboarding or #billing).

The search results show a list of matching library videos with their thumbnail, title, and creation date.

3

Share the video

Click Share next to the video you want to send. The video link is inserted into the conversation.

In Intercom, you also have the option to add a personalized message before sharing. A text area labeled "Personalize your message" lets you add context before sending.
