Collect Safe Diagnostic Evidence for Support

Overview

This guide will help you create a useful support package that reproduces the issue without exposing credentials or unnecessary private data.

Support receives reproducible, scoped evidence while sensitive information remains protected.

Before you start

Know issue owner, data-classification rules, secure transfer channel, and the minimum evidence needed.

Before saving, check that the correct company is open and that you have permission to complete this task.

Where to find it

About/Version, Request Support, affected inquiry/report, notifications, and authorized log locations.
