Getting Started With Scribe

Audience: All Users

Welcome to Scribe! Scribe makes process documentation quick and easy by automatically creating step-by-step guides.

Step 1: Download Scribe

Scribe offers multiple ways to use our tool: browser extensions and desktop apps.

Browser extensions:

All users can use either our Chrome or Edge extension to capture browser-based apps and processes.

Desktop apps:

Capture desktop-based apps and processes by utilizing our Mac and Windows desktop apps.

Step 2: Capture a Scribe

A Scribe is a step-by-step guide automatically created for any digital process. In order to capture a Scribe, all you have to do is turn on the Scribe recorder (via either the browser extension or desktop app), walk through your process as you normally would, and turn it off when you're done.

Step 3: Customize your Scribe

Scribe does all the heavy lifting to automatically turn your process into a Scribe, but you can customize to make it even better.

Edit your screenshots to crop, annotate, or redact.

Step 4: Share your Scribe

Scribes are meant to be shared, so we offer a handful of different ways you can share your Scribe with teammates.

If you want to embed your Scribe into other tools you're already using (knowledge bases, wikis, etc) you can easily do that with our Smart Embed functionality. Some of our most popular tools users embed into are Confluence, Sharepoint, Notion, Guru and Hubspot.

And that's it! In just a few minutes you've captured, customized, and shared your first Scribe with teammates.

💡Other helpful tips:

Outside of creating Scribes, there are a few other things new users find helpful to know about.

How to navigate your Workspaces and Dashboard

Different Workspaces may be created to house and organize different types of content. Browse existing Workspaces and join or request access to them via the Team Directory.

Dashboard

Your Dashboard is where you can find all of your Scribe content. You can search by Recent, My Files, or Shared with Me.
