Special Access Rules

Admins have access to add or edit prompts and walkthroughs. For non-admin users, assign the Manage Prompts and Modify Metadata Through Metadata API Functions user permission. Everyone can see the In-App Guidance setup page. To show walkthroughs to users, use the View Walkthroughs user permission, which is part of the Walkthroughs permission set license. The myTrailhead subscription includes this feature. For pricing details, contact your Salesforce account executive. But, you don’t have to start the trial or purchase a license to create, preview, or package walkthroughs. Note the restrictions on user visibility of the walkthroughs you create in the Packaging and Prompts and Walkthroughs section.
