One implementation provides a method for providing a solution to a problem durring an interaction. In this implementation, the method includes displaying to the user a first question and possible answers to the first question in a graphical user interface (GUI) upon identification of the problem. Each possible answer to the first question is associated with an electronic document stored in a first knowledge base. The method further includes receiving input from the user selecting one of the displayed answers to the first question during the interaction. In response to receiving this input, a name of the electronic document is displayed within the GUI. The electronic document whose name is displayed is associated with the selected answer to the first question and that provides a solution to the problem.
