# Documentation
> Access IT documentation from Hudu and IT Glue directly within MSPortal
The Documentation module gives you and your clients access to IT documentation from Hudu or IT Glue without leaving MSPortal. Browse articles, view asset inventories, access passwords securely, follow procedures, and review Liongard inspector data, all in one place.
## Key Features
Browse knowledge base articles and runbooks with folder navigation and company filtering.
View IT asset inventories organized by layout type (servers, laptops, printers, etc.).
Securely reveal shared passwords with auto-hide timeout and copy-to-clipboard support.
Access step-by-step procedures and runbooks with completion tracking.
## Prerequisites
* An active [Hudu](/user-guides/integrations/enable-hudu-integration) or [IT Glue](/user-guides/integrations/enable-itglue-integration) integration
* Appropriate user permissions for each tab
* For Passwords: password sharing must be enabled in the integration settings, and the user must have the `read_documentation_passwords` permission
## Accessing Documentation
Click **Documentation** in the sidebar. The page displays tabs based on your active integrations and permissions.
***
## Articles
The Articles tab displays knowledge base articles synced from your documentation provider.
| Column | Description |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| **Name** | Article title (click to view full article) |
| **Folder** | The folder the article belongs to |
| **Company** | Which company the article is scoped to |
| **Updated** | When the article was last modified |
### Folder Navigation
A **folder tree sidebar** on the left lets you browse articles by folder hierarchy:
* Click any folder to filter articles to that folder
* Click **All Articles** to clear the folder filter and see everything
* Folders are sorted alphabetically with nested sub-folders
### Searching
Use the search bar to find articles by name. Combine with folder filtering and the company selector to narrow results.

## Assets
The Assets tab displays IT asset records organized by asset layout type.
| Column | Description |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------- |
| **Name** | Asset name (click to view full details) |
| **Company** | Which company owns the asset |
| **Manufacturer** | Device manufacturer |
| **Model** | Device model |
| **Serial** | Serial number |
| **Updated** | When the asset was last modified |
### Asset Layout Sidebar
A sidebar on the left organizes assets by layout type (e.g., Servers, Laptops, Printers, Phones). Each layout shows an icon and count badge. Click a layout to filter to that asset type.

## Passwords
The Passwords tab provides secure access to shared passwords from your documentation provider.

Click the **Reveal** button next to any password entry. The password is fetched live from your documentation provider.
Once revealed, use the **eye icon** to toggle visibility and the **copy icon** to copy the password to your clipboard.
Revealed passwords automatically hide after **5 minutes** for security.
Passwords are never stored in MSPortal. They are fetched on-demand from Hudu or IT Glue each time you click Reveal.

## Inspectors (Liongard)
When a [Liongard integration](/user-guides/integrations/enable-liongard-integration) is active, an **Inspectors** tab appears showing configuration audit data from Liongard for all **non-device** inspector types. Device-level inspectors (like Windows Workstation) appear on individual devices in the [Devices module](/user-guides/devices) instead.
This tab is designed for browsing cloud and infrastructure inspectors such as Active Directory, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, firewalls, DNS providers, and backup systems that audit a service or environment rather than a single device.
### Browsing by Inspector Type
A sidebar on the left lists all non-device inspector types discovered in your Liongard instance (e.g., Active Directory, Microsoft 365, Firewall, Duo, AWS). Each type shows a count of how many systems use it.
Click an inspector type to see all systems of that type in the main area.
### System List
The system list shows:
| Column | Description |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------- |
| **System Name** | The inspected system name (click for details) |
| **Company** | Which company the system belongs to |
| **Last Inspected** | When Liongard last audited this system |
| **Status** | Active or inactive |
### System Detail View
Click any system to see its full configuration audit data:
* **Summary Cards**: Pass, fail, and warning counts with clickable filtering
* **System Overview**: System name, environment, inspector type, and last inspection timestamp
* **Security Metrics**: Dedicated section for security-related checks (firewall, encryption, MFA, antivirus)
* **Inspected Metrics**: All other configuration metrics with current values and pass/fail/warning status
* **Recent Changes**: Configuration change detections with inline diffs showing what was added or removed
Use the **search bar** to find specific metrics by name or value. Click **Expand/Collapse** to toggle all metric details at once.
Inspector types that are mapped as device types in your integration settings appear on the Devices page instead of here. This keeps the Inspectors tab focused on cloud and infrastructure audits.
***
## Company Filtering
All tabs respect the **company selector** in the header. Select a specific company to see only that company's articles, assets, passwords, procedures, and inspectors.
