Overview
DCP allows you to generate professional documentation by allowing you to combine documents and apply custom styles. With the Dakota Content Platform, users can easily import DITA into Google Document and export GDoc comments as XML comments. 

It accomplishes this by solving the fundamental limitations of GSuite by adding the ability to:

1. Apply professional external styles using CSS or XSLFO to Google Documents.

2. Add custom properties to Google Documents to drive custom publishing rules.

3. Add structure to documents like warnings, notes, and codeblocks.

4. Combine multiple documents into a single publication.

5. Share Google Documents across multiple publications.

6. Insert external documents or sheets into other Google Documents.

7. Insert variable text into Google Documents. 

8. Insert variable formulas into Google Documents.

9. Insert XML and HTML lookups into Google Documents.

If installed, from a Google Doc, you can go to "Extensions" > "Dakota Content Platform" > "Help", which opens a pop-up. The pop-up says, "Click on DCP Arista to open sidebar under the Add-ons | Get add-ons menu." That is inaccurate and incorrect. The pop-up also has a "Learn more" option that takes you to the Dakota Content Platform overview page—but not a help page about how to use the extension. First, the menu to click is "Extensions" (not "Add-ons"), and the item that opens the sidebar is "Extensions" > "Control Panel" (not "DCP Arista"). Second, Dakota Content Platform developed this extension and, according to its website, an enterprise content platform (that is, a content management system or CMS) for technical documentation among other things. However, as far as I can tell, I don't see any help content that helps me understand how to use this extension, and it's not intuitive. It doesn't bode well that it got the content in its own pop-up help dialogue wrong. I might excuse it if it was an old, unsupported extension—but according to the Workspace Marketplace description for this extension, it was last updated Dec 2, 2022, which is just a little over a month ago. Seems they've done a poor job of providing technical help docs, their expertise, and the product itself is difficult and counterintuitive. I'm afraid I need to uninstall this one.
