Support
Where you get help depends on where your GoodWorkshop runs: in GoodWorkshop Cloud or on a server that you or your organization runs yourselves.
| You use … | Then … |
|---|---|
| the cloud and can sign in | write via the support form in the profile menu |
| the cloud and can’t get in | send an e-mail to support@goodworkshop.org |
| a self-hosted installation | contact the person who runs it |
| GoodWorkshop and found a bug in the code | report it as a GitHub issue |
Many questions are already answered in this help. It’s worth checking the troubleshooting Overview first.
In the cloud: the support form
Section titled “In the cloud: the support form”- Open the profile menu at the top right.
- Choose Support.
- Enter a Subject and your Message.
- Click Send request.
The page then confirms: “Thank you! Your request reached us as ticket #…. The answer comes by e-mail.” The answer goes to the address you’re signed in with.
What is sent along automatically: your workspace, your role, the GoodWorkshop version and the language you use the app in. You don’t need to add those.
What helps: Describe what you did, what happened and what you expected. If there’s an error message on the screen, copy it in word for word. If an AI assistant got a message with a reference (“under the reference …”), include that reference — it lets us find the cause in the log.
When the form doesn’t work
Section titled “When the form doesn’t work”| Message | What to do |
|---|---|
| “The form is not available right now. Write to us directly at support@goodworkshop.org.” | Send an e-mail to support@goodworkshop.org. |
| “Your request could not be delivered just now. Please write to us directly at support@goodworkshop.org.” | The same: the request didn’t arrive, so write by e-mail. |
| “Too many attempts. Please try again later.” | Only a few requests per hour are possible per person. Wait a while or write by e-mail. |
In the cloud, without signing in
Section titled “In the cloud, without signing in”If you can’t get into your account — no sign-in link arrives, the passkey is refused — write to support@goodworkshop.org. Give your account’s e-mail address and, if you know it, the name of your workspace. It’s worth checking Sign-in and sign-in link first.
Self-hosted installations
Section titled “Self-hosted installations”A self-hosted installation is looked after by whoever runs it — usually your organization’s IT or the person who set up GoodWorkshop. We have no access to such installations and see no data from them.
If you run the installation yourself:
- Step-by-step help is under Installation and in the README under Troubleshooting.
- The log names most causes:
docker compose logs appanddocker compose logs migrate. - What deliberately doesn’t work yet is listed under Known issues.
Report a bug
Section titled “Report a bug”If you’ve found a bug in GoodWorkshop itself, open an issue on GitHub. Helpful are:
- the version (shown in the app’s footer and in
/api/health) - what you did, what happened and what you expected
- the relevant excerpt from the log
