Quick Parts in Zoho Writer – Save and Reuse Content Blocks

How to use Quick Parts library for reusable content in Zoho Writer

Overview  

The Quick Parts Library in Zoho Writer lets you save and reuse content blocks such as signatures, disclaimers, clauses, tables, boilerplate text, and formatted sections across document, to maintain consistency. You can add Quick Parts at the org and personal levels.
 
By default, Org Quick Parts are available for use to everyone across an organization. But you can also share them to only specific users, if needed. Org admins can add and manage all Organization Quick Parts and their categories. For the shared Organization Quick Parts though, you can empower other users also to manage them through role-based permissions. The Personal Quick Parts, as the name suggests, are available only to the user who creates them.

Prerequisites & Limits

  1. Content limit: up to 50,000 characters
  2. Image limit: up to 10 images
  3. Org Admin access is required to manage organizational Quick Parts categories.
