Best Practices
Writing Effective Tickets
- Be Specific: Clearly describe what you expected vs. what happened
- Include Context: Mention the feature, page, or action involved
- Add Details: Include relevant information like:
- Product IDs or URLs
- Error messages (exact text)
- Steps to reproduce the issue
- Screenshots (describe them if you can't attach)
- One Issue Per Ticket: Separate issues into different tickets for faster resolution
Example of a Good Ticket
Subject: Enrichment job fails for products with special characters
Category: Technical
Priority: Medium
Description:
When I try to enrich products that have special characters
(like "®" or "™") in their names, the enrichment job fails
with an error.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a product with name "Product™ Name"
2. Start an enrichment job
3. Job fails immediately
Product ID: product_abc123
Error message: "Invalid character in product name"
This started happening after the latest platform update.
