Scope of support

If your support request is outside of the scope of what our team can help you with, we may recommend next steps to resolve your issue outside of GitHub Support. Your support request is possibly out of GitHub Support's scope if the request is primarily about:

• Third party integrations, such as Jira
• Enterprise Cloud Importer (available only with expert-led migrations)
• Hardware setup
• CI/CD, such as Jenkins
• Writing scripts
• Configuration of external authentication systems, such as SAML identity providers
• Open source projects
• Writing or debugging new queries for CodeQL
• Cloud provider configurations, such as virtual network setup, custom firewall, or proxy rules.
• Container orchestration, such as Kubernetes setup, networking, etc.
• Detailed assistance with workflows and data management

If you're uncertain if the issue is out of scope, open a ticket and we're happy to help you determine the best way to proceed.

Installing GitHub Enterprise Server releases

To ensure that your GitHub Enterprise Server instance is stable, you must install and implement GitHub Enterprise Server releases. Installing GitHub Enterprise Server releases ensures that you have the latest features, modifications, and enhancements as well as any updates to features, code corrections, patches or other general updates and fixes to GitHub Enterprise Server.

Resolving and closing support tickets

GitHub Enterprise Support may consider a ticket solved after providing an explanation, recommendation, usage instructions, workaround instructions, or by advising you of an available release that addresses the issue.

If you have installed additional third-party software on, or made modifications to, GitHub Enterprise Server outside of the recommendations of GitHub Enterprise Support, GitHub Enterprise Support may ask you to remove the software and/or modifications while attempting to resolve the issue. If the problem is fixed when the unsupported software or modifications have been removed, GitHub Enterprise Support may consider the ticket solved.

GitHub Enterprise Support may close a ticket if the ticket is outside the scope of support or if multiple attempts to contact you have gone unanswered. If GitHub Enterprise Support closes a ticket due to lack of response, you can request that GitHub Enterprise Support reopen the ticket.
