Self-help widget explained

A self-help widget, sometimes called a resource center or help launcher, brings documentation into the product. Users open it, search for their question and launch a walkthrough or read an article in place.

Self-help widgets reduce support tickets for how-to questions. Searches with no results are a useful signal for which content to create next.
