# Create an article

You can create a draft of an article on the Assignment. You can then easily see a preview of the article and the reporter has already a draft to work on.

If you have choosen "text" as the type of the Assignment you can directly create a draft of an article. There are two ways of doing it. You can click in the checkbox Auto create article (1). If you do so the draft will automatically be created  and you see it in the article list at the bottom of the Assignment card. If the checkbox is not selected, or if you want to make more articles than one, you click on Add article (2).

**TIP** One tip is to add metadata ( as Topic and Category in the screenshot below) on the Assignment. Doing so this information follows to the Article automatically. If you had done this on the Planning already, the Assignment automatically will have this information.

The article will get the same unit as the one you are logged in as by default.&#x20;

**When you have created an article you need to save the assignment before anyone will be able to work with the article.** That is because the article is only saved when the assignment is saved. If anyone try to work with the article before the assignment is saved correctly, the user will get an error message that the article does not exist.&#x20;

When the draft of the article has been created, the reporter can start to work by open the article from the Assignment. Open the article can be done in three ways:

1. Clicking on the icon to the left of the article namn.
2. Dubbel clicking on the name of the article
3. Click once on the name of the article. A preview is now opened and there is a button called Open in Writer.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.navigaglobal.com/newsroom-planner/master-25/user-guide/assignment/create-assignment/create-an-article.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
