Stop sending every employee to the same knowledge base

Your HR team doesn't need engineering docs. Your sales team doesn't need IT policies. Yet most companies dump everyone into one giant knowledge base and wonder why adoption is terrible.

Without Docsie

  • Employees waste 15+ minutes searching through irrelevant documentation from other departments
  • Sensitive information is visible to people who shouldn't see it, creating compliance headaches
  • IT manually manages access lists across multiple platforms, burning hours each week
  • New hires get overwhelmed by thousands of docs they'll never need, slowing onboarding
Recommended

With Docsie

  • Each employee sees only their department's docs automatically—no searching, no confusion
  • Security and compliance teams sleep better knowing access is controlled by your existing SSO groups
  • IT sets routing rules once using email domains or Azure AD groups—then it runs itself
  • New employees land in exactly the right knowledge base from day one, cutting onboarding time in half

Why Docsie

The right knowledge, to the right people, automatically

No more access request tickets. No more wasted time searching. Just seamless routing based on who your people already are.

Set It and Forget It Routing

Define rules once based on email domain, department, or your existing SSO groups. Docsie automatically sends every user to their department's knowledge base without IT touching anything. When someone changes roles, their access updates automatically through your directory.

Built-In Security and Audit Trail

Every login, every document view, every routing decision is logged. You can see exactly who accessed what and when, plus revoke sessions instantly if someone leaves or changes departments. Your security team gets the visibility they demand without extra work.

Works With Your Existing Setup

Already using Azure AD, Okta, or another SSO provider? Docsie plugs right in and uses the groups you've already created. No migration, no duplicate user management, no asking IT to maintain yet another system. It just works.

Real-World Use Cases

See how organizations use department-based routing to cut through the noise and get people the docs they actually need.

Engineering, Sales, and Support—Each Gets Their Own View
Multi-Department Organization

Engineering, Sales, and Support—Each Gets Their Own View

A 500-person SaaS company was drowning in documentation chaos. Engineers saw customer support scripts, sales saw technical architecture docs, and nobody could find what they needed. They implemented department-based routing using email domains and cut search time by 70%.

  • Sales reps only see product guides, pricing sheets, and competitive intel
  • Engineering only sees technical docs, deployment guides, and internal tools
  • Support team gets customer-facing knowledge and troubleshooting playbooks
Keeping HIPAA-Sensitive Docs Away from Unauthorized Eyes
Healthcare & Compliance

Keeping HIPAA-Sensitive Docs Away from Unauthorized Eyes

A healthcare provider needed to ensure clinical staff saw treatment protocols while administrative staff only accessed billing and HR documentation. They used Azure AD group mapping to automatically route users based on role, maintaining strict compliance without manual access reviews.

  • Clinical staff automatically routed to HIPAA-compliant medical documentation
  • Administrative teams see only non-clinical policies and procedures
  • Complete audit trail for compliance reviews and security audits
External Partners See Only What They Need to See
Contractor & Vendor Access

External Partners See Only What They Need to See

A manufacturing company works with dozens of contractors who need documentation access but shouldn't see internal policies, financials, or strategic plans. They created custom routing rules for contractor email domains, giving vendors exactly what they need and nothing more.

  • Contractors auto-routed to project-specific documentation based on email domain
  • Internal employees see full company knowledge base plus department-specific docs
  • Session revocation when contracts end—no lingering access

Azure AD & SSO Group Mapping

Use the groups you've already created in your identity provider to control who sees what.

Custom Routing Rules

Build complex rules based on any combination of email, group membership, or custom claims from your SSO.

Complete Audit Trail

See exactly who accessed which knowledge base and when, with exportable logs for compliance reviews.

Instant Session Revocation

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to the questions we hear most from enterprise IT and security teams.

Getting Started

Most Popular

Q: How long does it take to set up department-based routing?

A: Most organizations have basic routing running in under an hour. You connect your SSO provider, map a few groups or email domains to knowledge bases, and you're done. More complex rules with multiple conditions might take a few hours to configure and test.

Q: Can we test routing rules before rolling them out to everyone?

A: Absolutely. You can create routing rules and test them with specific users or groups before applying them company-wide. Most teams test with a small pilot group first, then expand once they're confident everything works.

Q: What happens if someone doesn't match any routing rule?

A: You define a default knowledge base for anyone who doesn't match your specific rules. This ensures nobody gets stuck at a login screen, and you can always review access logs to see if you need to adjust your routing logic.

Security & Compliance

Q: How do we prove to auditors that the right people saw the right documents?

A: Docsie maintains a complete audit trail showing which user accessed which knowledge base, when they logged in, and how they were routed. You can export these logs for compliance reviews or security audits anytime you need them.

Q: Can we revoke access immediately if someone leaves the company?

A: Yes. You can manually revoke individual sessions instantly, or when you remove someone from your SSO provider, they automatically lose access to all Docsie knowledge bases. No waiting period, no cached credentials—immediate lockout.
