FAQ Generator
Auto-generate a weekly FAQ from resolved tickets and publish it anywhere with one click.
What is the FAQ Generator?
The FAQ Generator turns your resolved support tickets into a structured FAQ document. Each week, AnswerLoops scans all tickets that were resolved in the past 7 days, clusters them by topic, and uses AI to write clean Q&A pairs — one FAQ entry per question cluster.
The result is a living FAQ that reflects what your community is actually asking, not what you assumed they'd ask when you wrote your original docs.
How to generate a FAQ
- Go to FAQ in the left sidebar
- Click Generate from this week's tickets
- AnswerLoops calls the AI with all resolved tickets from the past 7 days
- The FAQ appears on the page — review and copy it wherever you publish docs
Only resolved tickets count. Open or in-progress tickets are excluded. If you click Generate and see "No tickets to generate from", resolve some tickets first or check that your tickets have been updated to resolved status.
What a FAQ entry looks like
Each entry contains:
- Question — the original question, cleaned up and normalized
- Answer — the resolution, written as a self-contained answer (not "see the thread above")
- Source ticket link — links back to the original ticket for full context
Multiple tickets that ask the same thing are merged into one FAQ entry.
FAQ history
Every time you generate a FAQ, AnswerLoops saves a snapshot with:
- The week it covers (Monday → Sunday)
- How many tickets were included
- The full FAQ content
You can view past snapshots by returning to the FAQ page — previous weeks are listed below the current week's output.
Copying and publishing
The FAQ is plain text (Markdown). Copy it and paste it into:
- Your docs site
- A Notion page
- A Discord
#faqchannel - Your GitHub wiki
AnswerLoops doesn't auto-publish — you control where the FAQ goes.
Troubleshooting
Generate button does nothing / spinner disappears with no output
The most common cause is no resolved tickets in the past 7 days. Go to Tickets, filter by status, and confirm some are marked Resolved. If they are and it still fails, check your AI provider key in Settings → AI Model.
FAQ shows last week's content even after generating again
Refresh the page after generating. The new snapshot is saved immediately but the page may show a cached version.
FAQ is too long / too many entries
Each resolved ticket contributes at most one entry. To reduce FAQ length, resolve fewer tickets per week (close duplicates without resolving them separately) or edit the output after generating.
