Stories in Content Manager

Last Updated September 29, 2026

Brief Overview

WalkMe Stories turns WalkMe items into step-by-step guides that you can share and edit. You can start a story straight from the Content Manager instead of rebuilding your content in the Stories app.

From the Content Manager, you can:

  • Create a story from one item, several items, or a folder
  • See which stories already include an item
  • Add an item to a story from its preview slides
