Tips for Getting Faster Help
Providing the right information upfront helps the support team diagnose and resolve your issue more quickly. Before starting a chat, have the following ready where applicable:- Campaign ID — for example,
cp100. This allows agents to pull up your exact configuration without back-and-forth. - Transaction ID or Lead ID — if your issue relates to a specific lead or submission, include the transaction ID (e.g. a UUID from your logs or reports).
- Error messages — copy the exact error text or HTTP response code you are seeing rather than paraphrasing it.
- Screenshots or screen recordings — visual context often cuts resolution time significantly. Attach files directly in the chat window.
- Steps to reproduce — describe what you did, in what order, and what happened at each step. This is especially helpful for intermittent issues.
- Expected vs. actual behavior — clearly state what you expected the platform to do and what it actually did.
The more context you provide at the start of the conversation, the less time is spent on clarification and the faster your issue gets resolved.
