Creating a New Ticket in the ThreatLocker Portal.

Click on the 'Help' button located towards the top-right of the page and select 'Help Desk' from the drop-down menu.

Alternatively, you can click 'Chat with a Cyber Hero' to begin chatting with a member of our support team and a ticket will be automatically opened for you.

Click the '+ New Ticket' button located at the top left of the screen to start a new ticket.

A new window will popup at the bottom right of the screen in which you will begin creating your ticket. All fields in this window must be filled out before a ticket can be created.

You will be prompted to select an 'Action'; deciding between 'Chat With A Cyber Hero' or 'Submit Offline Ticket'.  

Submitting a ticket offline will be creating a ticket without speaking directly with a Cyber Hero. This is similar to sending an email. Offline is a good option for concerns or suggestions that do not need immediate attention.

  For issues that require immediate assistance, please choose the Action 'Chat With A Cyber Hero'.   

 By default, the Organization will be the Organization that you are currently managing. If this issue affects a different Organization, please input the correct Organization.

By default, the Primary Contact will be the account you are logged in under. If a different Administrator needs to be the Primary Contact, please select the corresponding email address from the 'Primary Contact' dropdown.

Next, enter a brief summary of the issue you are opening a support ticket for.

Now, you can click 'Chat Now' if you are starting a chat with a Cyber Hero.

If you are submitting an offline ticket, you are required to enter something into the 'Description of Issue' field before clicking 'Submit Ticket'. 

undefined

 

If you are beginning a chat, a LiveChat popup will open at the bottom right of your screen. Here, you will begin chatting with a Cyber Hero. 

Once you close the LiveChat window, a new popup will appear letting you know your ticket has been submitted successfully. The entire chat transcript will be automatically imported into the ticket.

If you are opening an Offline ticket, no chat window will popup. A new popup will appear letting you know your ticket has been submitted successfully.

You can click on the ticket number or the summary of the issue to open the ticket where you can investigate and verify if you are satisfied that the issue has been resolved.
