Ticket details

Enter a description of the issue you are having in the form above, and click ‘Continue’ to proceed to enter the case details. After clicking 'Continue' The 'Ticket Details' screen will then be displayed as seen here:

Case_Details

• First, select the issue type from the dropdown: options include Problem, Question, Feature Request, or Other.

• Then, choose the priority level using our priority guidelines to ensure fair support for all users.

• If you have a preferred region, you can select it from an optional dropdown to align your case with the engineering team closest to your region.

• Use the radio buttons above to both mark the case as Urgent (for critical scenarios where Armory is unavailable/unusable), and Was this working before? if there were no changes made to indicate a potential regression.

• For Module, select Spinnaker from the dropdown.

• In the description field, provide detailed information to help expedite resolution. You can also upload attachments (images, logs, etc.) that may assist.

• Click Submit to confirm your case. A success message and case ID link will appear at the top of the UI, allowing direct access to Zendesk portal for Harness Support when clicked.

Manage cases directly via Zendesk portal

The other option available in the help menu seen in the 'Accessing Zendesk' section above, is ‘View my tickets’. Upon clicking this you will be directed to the Zendesk interface, which you may also access via https://support.harness.io after authentication via your support account. Here you may manage cases you have submitted as well as cases across your organization, example:

Org_Case_List

You may also:

• Create new cases in the portal by selecting ‘Submit a request’ at the top right.

• Reply to cases you have submitted as well as comment on cases from others in your organization.

• Update the priority and other fields for cases you’ve submitted accordingly.

• Close any cases you have resolved by changing their status to Solved.

• Choose to follow other cases and be notified whenever they are updated via email.

Submitting tickets via email

You can also submit support tickets by emailing [e-mail]; however, this method doesn’t capture the same level of detail as the support portal, and is not recommended unless you are unable to access you Harness Support account. If emailing, please mention Spinnaker in the email submission to ensure proper routing to the correct support engineers.
