  • Features Yandex Wiki

Yandex Wiki is a service for creating a corporate knowledge base, which is maintained and updated by users — the organization employees.

Wiki can be used to store any information that the organization employees may need in their work: memos, useful links and contacts, work instructions, project documentation, and personal notes. Wiki provides employees with additional opportunities for collaboration: they can share information, search for answers to frequently asked questions, and discuss tasks in page comments.

Access to Yandex Wiki

Yandex Wiki can be accessed by organization employees registered on Yandex Cloud Organization. Each organization has its own knowledge base on Yandex Wiki, which can only be accessed by the organization employees. To learn more about setting up Yandex Wiki, read Enabling Yandex Wiki.

To access Wiki, log in to your corporate account.

If the organization has a user and access management system (such as Active Directory or Google Workspace), employees can use their corporate accounts to log in to the Yandex Cloud organization and access Wiki through a Single Sign-On (SSO) system. To do this, the organization admin needs to configure identity federation. Read more in the Yandex Cloud Organization documentation in the SAML-compatible identity federations section.

Features Yandex Wiki

  • Create Wiki pages with text, images, tables, and links.

  • Use the Markdown markup for text formatting: you can highlight text fragments, add titles, lists, quotes, and other elements.

  • Use edit history to track user changes to Wiki pages. You can compare two page versions or restore a previous version from the edit history.

  • To structure information on Wiki, create cluster trees and link pages with cross-links. Learn more in Structure of Yandex Wiki.

  • To quickly find information on Wiki, use the search, subscribe to pages, and add them to favorites.

  • Configure page access rights: you can open the page for all or some employees, restrict editing access, or prohibit users from viewing the page.

  • Use Wiki integration with Yandex Tracker and Yandex Forms:

    • Adding an issue list to a page from Yandex Tracker.

    • Embedding a form on a page.

    • Saving responses from the Yandex Forms form on a Wiki page.
