Managing support entitlements

Learn how to manage support entitlements for your enterprise.

About support entitlements

People with support entitlements for your enterprise account can use the support portal to open, view, and comment on support tickets associated with the enterprise account.

Enterprise owners and billing managers automatically have a support entitlement. Enterprise owners can add support entitlements to a limited number of enterprise members.

  • Premium plan: Up to 20 members
  • Premium Plus plan / GitHub Engineering Direct: Up to 40 members

Adding support entitlements

To add a support entitlement to a user, the user must already be a member of an organization that is owned by your enterprise.

Note

After you add a support entitlement, the enterprise member may need to sign out from GitHub Support portal, then sign in again, before they can manage tickets.

  1. In the top-right corner of GitHub, click your profile photo.
  2. Depending on your environment, click Your enterprise, or click Your enterprises then click the enterprise you want to view.
  3. On the left side of the page, in the enterprise account sidebar, click Settings.
  4. Under "Settings", click Support.
  5. In the search bar, start typing the name or username of the person you want to give a support entitlement. Click their name in the list of matches.
  6. Click Add support entitlement.

Removing entitlements

You can manually remove support entitlements for enterprise members provided they are not enterprise owners or billing managers.
