Use this glossary to match Help Center terms with the current workspace. The main areas are Home, Chat, Employees, Library, Deploy, Create, and Insights. Older guide names remain useful search terms, but their navigation may have changed.

Expected result

You can recognize current labels, understand older search terms, and choose the relevant task guide without assuming that similar names mean identical behavior.

Status meanings

Status labels belong to the specific task and item. A configured, completed, or running state does not establish accuracy, delivery, public availability, or data retention by itself.

Usage credit impact

This glossary does not define prices, plan allowances, per-action rates, or refresh timing. Use current account information.

Information stored or shared

Names of product areas do not define retention, deletion, export completeness, or what a connected service receives. Review the task-specific guidance for the information involved.

Limits and permanent actions

Features and labels may vary by account. Older references to Worker Agent, Knowledge Agent, or Ready Player Me should not be used as current setup instructions. The glossary is not a privacy policy or a metric specification.

Common problems and recovery

ProblemWhat to check
A guide uses an older area nameUse the Older names table and follow the current visible controls.
A label is not listedSearch its exact wording and include it in a support request.
A metric is unclearRead its explanation in Insights; do not infer a formula from the name.
