# Support tickets

The **Support Tickets** section allows users to contact 3Q Support directly from the platform and manage support requests in one place.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are experiencing a critical issue that affects the availability of your service, select **Malfunction** as the ticket category. After submitting the ticket, you will receive our support phone number so you can contact us directly.
{% endhint %}

Support tickets can be used to report problems, ask questions, request assistance, or submit feature requests. Users can create new tickets, review existing tickets, filter tickets by status, and follow the communication history of a ticket.

The Support Tickets section is accessible through the user avatar in the top-right corner of the platform.

From the Support Tickets section, users can:

* View existing support tickets
* Search for tickets
* Filter tickets by status
* Create new support requests
* Select a support category
* Provide details about the topic
* Review the ticket conversation
* Check the current ticket status
* Re-open closed tickets, if needed

Depending on the selected category, available topics may include platform areas such as:

* 3Q Platform
* Classic UI
* Platform

Helpful information includes:

* Steps to reproduce the issue
* Error messages, if available
* Relevant IDs, such as project ID, file ID, player ID, or ticket ID

This allows users to follow the full support history and review previous answers or updates.

***

### Re-opening a Ticket

Closed tickets may provide a **Re-open Ticket** action.

Use this option when a closed topic is still relevant, the issue has not been resolved, or additional follow-up is required.

When re-opening a ticket, add a clear message explaining why the ticket should be continued.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.3q.video/user-guide-new-ui/personal-area/support-tickets.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
