Submitting Tickets

You can submit tickets in two ways:

  • using the interface of Customer Case
  • sending an email to the specified address

Usage of the second way is possible on the support and feedback forums where a vendor enabled mailboxes. In this case, you can submit requests and comments including attachments by sending an email to the specific address. Customer Case will automatically fetch the required data from the email body and create either a new request or post a comment to the corresponding request. For mapping comments to specific Jira issues, you need to keep the request key number in the email subject when replying to the request from Customer Case.

  1. Locate the Create a request button and click it.
  2. On the opened page, enter the short summary of your ticket and its description.
  3. Select the appropriate category.

  5. Click Save when complete.

  • Selection of the category may be unavailable if components are not defined for the project.
