Help Center & Support Tickets
How to get help and track support requests through our ticketing system
Introduction
The Help Center provides a private support ticket system for reporting issues, requesting assistance, and tracking your support requests. All communication is secure and handled through in-app notifications.
Why It Exists
Rather than relying on scattered emails or external support platforms, the Help Center centralizes all support interactions. It ensures:
- Organized tracking of all your issues
- Clear communication history with support team
- Automated notifications for status updates
- Faster resolution times through structured workflows
Accessing the Help Center
You can access the Help Center from multiple places:
- Main navigation: Click Help Center in the header
- Dashboard sidebar: Click My Tickets
- Direct URL: Visit /help-center
Creating a Support Ticket
Step 1: Navigate to Ticket Creation
From the Help Center landing page, click Create New Ticket or use the My Tickets → New Ticket button.
Step 2: Select Issue Type
Choose the category that best describes your issue:
- Bug: Something isn't working as expected
- Data: Issues with GitHub, LeetCode, or LinkedIn data synchronization
- Billing: Questions about subscriptions or payments
- Access: Login, permissions, or account access problems
- Other: General questions or feedback
Step 3: Specify Affected Feature
Select which feature is experiencing the issue from the dropdown menu. This helps our support team quickly route your ticket to the right specialist.
Step 4: Write a Clear Subject
Provide a brief summary of your issue (minimum 10 characters, maximum 200). Be specific—good examples:
- "GitHub analytics not updating since yesterday"
- "Unable to access LeetCode stats after connection"
- "Resume builder PDF download failing"
Step 5: Describe the Issue
Provide detailed information about what's happening:
- What were you trying to do?
- What actually happened?
- What did you expect to happen?
- When did this start occurring?
- Steps to reproduce (if applicable)
The description must be at least 50 characters and can be up to 2,000 characters. You can use the Preview toggle to see how your description will appear.
Rate Limiting
To prevent spam, ticket creation is limited to 5 tickets per day per user. If you reach this limit, you'll need to wait until the next day to create additional tickets.
Tracking Your Tickets
Viewing All Tickets
Navigate to Help Center → View My Tickets to see all your support requests. You can:
- Search by ticket ID or subject
- Filter by status (All, Open, In Review, Resolved, Closed)

Ticket Statuses
Your ticket moves through different statuses as our support team works on it:
- Open: Ticket created and waiting for admin review
- In Review: Admin is actively investigating your issue
- Awaiting User: Support team needs more information from you
- Resolved: Issue has been fixed or answered
- Closed: Ticket is archived (no further action)
Status Timeline
Each ticket detail page shows a visual timeline of status progression, making it easy to see where your ticket stands.
Communicating with Support
Viewing Ticket Details

- Original description

- Current status and priority
- Assignment information (if applicable)
Replying to Support
When the support team responds to your ticket, you'll receive an in-app notification. Click the notification or visit the ticket directly to:
1. Read the admin's response 2. Type your reply in the message box 3. Click Send Reply to respond
Your message will be added to the conversation thread and the support team will be notified.
Message Threading
All communication is threaded chronologically, with clear indicators showing:
- Your messages (standard appearance)
- Support team messages (blue accent, "Support Team" badge)
- Timestamps for each message
Auto-Scroll
The ticket detail page automatically scrolls to the latest message, keeping you focused on the most recent communication.
Notifications
When You're Notified
You'll receive in-app notifications when:
- Admin responds to your ticket
- Ticket status changes
- Ticket is marked as resolved
Accessing Notifications
Click the notification bell icon in your dashboard to see all notifications. Notifications link directly to the relevant ticket.
Closing Tickets
When Status is Resolved
Once the support team marks your ticket as Resolved, you can review the solution and close the ticket if you're satisfied.
How to Close
1. Navigate to the resolved ticket 2. Verify the issue is fixed or your question is answered 3. Click the Close Ticket button
Closed Ticket Behavior
After closing a ticket:
- Status changes to Closed
- You cannot add new messages
- The ticket remains visible in your ticket history
- Resolution notes are permanently displayed
Priority Levels
Tickets are automatically assigned priority based on issue type:
- Critical: Access issues (you can't use the platform)
- High: Bugs and billing issues (features broken or payment problems)
- Medium: Data sync issues (incorrect or missing data)
- Low: General questions and other inquiries
Priority helps our support team triage and respond to urgent issues faster.
Best Practices
Writing Effective Tickets
- Be specific: "Login fails with 'Invalid credentials' error" is better than "I can't log in"
- Include details: Browser version, operating system, timestamps
- Attach context: Mention what you were doing before the issue occurred
- One issue per ticket: Don't combine multiple unrelated problems
Response Time Expectations
- Most tickets receive an initial response within 24 hours
- Complex issues may require investigation and take longer
- You'll always be notified of progress via status updates
Following Up
- If you don't receive a response within 48 hours, check your ticket status
- Add a reply to bump the ticket if needed
- Provide requested information promptly to avoid delays
Admin Workflow (For Reference)
Understanding how support works behind the scenes:
1. Ticket Created: Admin team sees new ticket in support dashboard 2. Assignment: Ticket assigned to appropriate admin 3. Investigation: Admin reviews your issue and context 4. Response: Admin sends message (you receive notification) 5. Collaboration: Back-and-forth until issue is understood 6. Resolution: Admin implements fix or provides answer 7. Status Update: Ticket marked as resolved 8. Closure: You close the ticket once satisfied
Admins can also add internal notes (hidden from users) to coordinate with other team members on complex issues.
Security & Privacy
- All support tickets are private and only visible to you and the support team
- Ticket data is encrypted in transit and at rest
- Support staff have strict confidentiality policies
- Your personal information is never shared outside the support team
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I reopen a closed ticket?
Currently, closed tickets cannot be reopened. If you encounter the same issue again after closing, create a new ticket and reference the old ticket ID for context.
Will I get email notifications?
Currently, all notifications are in-app only. Check your dashboard notification bell regularly for updates.
Can I attach files to tickets?
File attachments are not currently supported. Describe your issue in detail using text, and support may request specific information if needed.
What if my issue is urgent?
Access issues (you can't log in) and billing issues are automatically marked as high priority. For other urgent matters, clearly state the urgency in your ticket description.
How do I check ticket history?
All your tickets remain in the My Tickets dashboard indefinitely, even after being closed. Filter by status to find old tickets.
Can I delete a ticket?
Tickets cannot be deleted to maintain support record integrity. If you created a ticket by mistake, simply close it with a note explaining it was created in error.
