# Submit a support request

> Submit a Sigma support request with a severity level and optional attachments when live chat is unavailable. This document explains how to submit a support request with different severity levels and optional attachments.

When [live chat](/docs/sigma-support#contact-sigma) is unavailable, or if you prefer to receive support communications via email, you can submit a support request in Sigma's support portal.

1. Go to <a href="https://support.sigmacomputing.com/" target="_blank">support.sigmacomputing.com</a> and click **Submit a request**, or <a href="https://support.sigmacomputing.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?" target="_blank">open the form directly</a>.

   If you're not currently logged into your Sigma Support account, submit your credentials to access the form.

   Your Sigma Support account is separate from your Sigma app account and may have been created during customer onboarding. If you cannot sign in and don't receive a password reset email after submitting a **Forgot password** request, you might not have an existing Sigma Support account. To request one, contact your Sigma Account Manager.
2. Complete the **Submit a request** form:

   1. \[optional] In the **CC** field, enter additional email addresses that should receive a copy of the request and all responses. The email address associated with your Sigma Support account is automatically saved as a recipient.
   2. In the **Subject** field, enter a brief summary of your request.
   3. In the **Description** field, describe the issue and include relevant information (for example, the error message and ID) that can enable the Support team to quickly and easily assist you.
   4. Click the **Severity** field and select an option from the dropdown:

      <table>
        <tbody>
          <tr>
            <td>
              **S3**

               (low)
            </td>

            <td>
              General product questions and feature requests.
            </td>
          </tr>

          <tr>
            <td>
              **S2**

               (medium)
            </td>

            <td>
              Specific product functionality is degraded and affects a small number of users.
            </td>
          </tr>

          <tr>
            <td>
              **S1**

               (high)
            </td>

            <td>
              Sigma service or performance is severely degraded for one or more product components and affects business processes.
            </td>
          </tr>

          <tr>
            <td>
              **S0**

               (critical)
            </td>

            <td>
              Sigma service is inaccessible for one or more major product components and affects crucial business processes.
            </td>
          </tr>
        </tbody>
      </table>

      A request submitted with the **S0** (critical) severity level immediately alerts the on-call Support engineers, regardless of day or time. Please select this severity level only if your issue meets the criteria.
   5. \[optional] In the **Attachments** section, add relevant files that can help the Support team better understand the issue.
   6. Click **Submit**.
